Scaffold-associated regions: cis-acting determinants of chromatin structural loops and functional domains
Abstract
It has been proposed that scaffold-associated regions are DNA elements that form the bases of chromatin loops in eukaryotic cells. Recent evidence supports a role for these elements as cis-acting 'handlers' of both structural and functional chromatin domains.
