Single-nucleus Hi-C reveals unique chromatin reorganization at oocyte-to-zygote transition

IM Flyamer, J Gassler, M Imakaev, HB Brandão… - Nature, 2017 - nature.com
Chromatin is reprogrammed after fertilization to produce a totipotent zygote with the potential
to generate a new organism 1 . The maternal genome inherited from the oocyte and the …

Active chromatin and transcription play a key role in chromosome partitioning into topologically associating domains

…, EE Khrameeva, AA Gavrilov, IM Flyamer… - Genome …, 2016 - genome.cshlp.org
Recent advances enabled by the Hi-C technique have unraveled many principles of chromosomal
folding that were subsequently linked to disease and gene regulation. In particular, Hi-…

A mechanism of cohesin‐dependent loop extrusion organizes zygotic genome architecture

J Gassler, HB Brandão, M Imakaev, IM Flyamer… - The EMBO …, 2017 - embopress.org
Fertilization triggers assembly of higher‐order chromatin structure from a condensed
maternal and a naïve paternal genome to generate a totipotent embryo. Chromatin loops and …

Cohesin is required for long-range enhancer action at the Shh locus

L Kane, I Williamson, IM Flyamer, Y Kumar… - Nature structural & …, 2022 - nature.com
The regulatory landscapes of developmental genes in mammals can be complex, with
enhancers spread over many hundreds of kilobases. It has been suggested that three-…

Developmentally regulated Shh expression is robust to TAD perturbations

…, L Kane, PS Devenney, IM Flyamer… - …, 2019 - journals.biologists.com
Topologically associating domains (TADs) have been proposed to both guide and constrain
enhancer activity. Shh is located within a TAD known to contain all its enhancers. To …

[HTML][HTML] MCM complexes are barriers that restrict cohesin-mediated loop extrusion

…, J Gassler, S Powell, I Gaspar, IM Flyamer… - Nature, 2022 - nature.com
Eukaryotic genomes are compacted into loops and topologically associating domains (TADs)
1 , 2 – 3 , which contribute to transcription, recombination and genomic stability 4 , 5 . …

A central role for canonical PRC1 in shaping the 3D nuclear landscape

S Boyle, IM Flyamer, I Williamson… - Genes & …, 2020 - genesdev.cshlp.org
Polycomb group (PcG) proteins silence gene expression by chemically and physically
modifying chromatin. A subset of PcG target loci are compacted and cluster in the nucleus; a …

[HTML][HTML] Nuclear lamina integrity is required for proper spatial organization of chromatin in Drosophila

…, VV Nenasheva, AA Ilyin, IM Flyamer… - Nature …, 2019 - nature.com
How the nuclear lamina (NL) impacts on global chromatin architecture is poorly understood.
Here, we show that NL disruption in Drosophila S2 cells leads to chromatin compaction and …

IM Flyamer, RS Illingworth, WA Bickmore - Bioinformatics, 2020 - academic.oup.com
… Ilya M Flyamer , Ilya M Flyamer … Approaches to analyse strength of loops, TADs and genome
compartmentalization from such data genome wide have been developed (Flyamer et al., …

[PDF][PDF] DNA methylation directs polycomb-dependent 3D genome re-organization in naive pluripotency

K McLaughlin, IM Flyamer, JP Thomson, HK Mjoseng… - Cell Reports, 2019 - cell.com
The DNA hypomethylation that occurs when embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are directed to the
ground state of naive pluripotency by culturing in two small molecule inhibitors (2i) results in …
