Subnuclear genome compartmentalization controls bivalent chromatin activity - Nature

Reports mapping how three-dimensional subnuclear compartments reorganize during human cortical neurogenesis and regulate bivalent chromatin states and transcriptional activation.

Key Takeaways
  • Poised state of bivalent genes embedded in the lamina
  • Our analyses established subnuclear genome compartmentalization as a key regulator of bivalency
  • Functional experiments demonstrated that the lamina represses transcription independently of local H3K27me3
