Comprehensive mapping of long-range interactions reveals folding principles of the human genome

E Lieberman-Aiden, NL Van Berkum, L Williams… - science, 2009 - science.org
We describe Hi-C, a method that probes the three-dimensional architecture of whole genomes
by coupling proximity-based ligation with massively parallel sequencing. We constructed …

[PDF][PDF] A 3D map of the human genome at kilobase resolution reveals principles of chromatin looping

SSP Rao, MH Huntley, NC Durand, EK Stamenova… - Cell, 2014 - cell.com
We use in situ Hi-C to probe the 3D architecture of genomes, constructing haploid and diploid
maps of nine cell types. The densest, in human lymphoblastoid cells, contains 4.9 billion …

Quantitative analysis of culture using millions of digitized books

JB Michel, YK Shen, AP Aiden, A Veres, MK Gray… - science, 2011 - science.org
We constructed a corpus of digitized texts containing about 4% of all books ever printed.
Analysis of this corpus enables us to investigate cultural trends quantitatively. We survey the …

[PDF][PDF] Juicer provides a one-click system for analyzing loop-resolution Hi-C experiments

NC Durand, MS Shamim, I Machol, SSP Rao… - Cell systems, 2016 - cell.com
Hi-C experiments explore the 3D structure of the genome, generating terabases of data to
create high-resolution contact maps. Here, we introduce Juicer, an open-source tool for …

De novo assembly of the Aedes aegypti genome using Hi-C yields chromosome-length scaffolds

O Dudchenko, SS Batra, AD Omer, SK Nyquist… - Science, 2017 - science.org
The Zika outbreak, spread by the Aedes aegypti mosquito, highlights the need to create high-quality
assemblies of large genomes in a rapid and cost-effective way. Here we combine Hi-…

Chromatin extrusion explains key features of loop and domain formation in wild-type and engineered genomes

AL Sanborn, SSP Rao, SC Huang… - Proceedings of the …, 2015 - National Acad Sciences
We recently used in situ Hi-C to create kilobase-resolution 3D maps of mammalian genomes.
Here, we combine these maps with new Hi-C, microscopy, and genome-editing …

[PDF][PDF] Cohesin loss eliminates all loop domains

SSP Rao, SC Huang, BG St Hilaire, JM Engreitz… - Cell, 2017 - cell.com
The human genome folds to create thousands of intervals, called "contact domains," that
exhibit enhanced contact frequency within themselves. "Loop domains" form because of …

[PDF][PDF] Juicebox provides a visualization system for Hi-C contact maps with unlimited zoom

NC Durand, JT Robinson, MS Shamim, I Machol… - Cell systems, 2016 - cell.com
Hi-C experiments study how genomes fold in 3D, generating contact maps containing
features as small as 20 bp and as large as 200 Mb. Here we introduce Juicebox, a tool for …

Hi-C: a method to study the three-dimensional architecture of genomes.

NL Van Berkum, E Lieberman-Aiden, L Williams… - JoVE (Journal of …, 2010 - jove.com
The three-dimensional folding of chromosomes compartmentalizes the genome and and
can bring distant functional elements, such as promoters and enhancers, into close spatial …

The earth BioGenome project 2020: Starting the clock

…, S Richards, E Lieberman Aiden… - Proceedings of the …, 2022 - National Acad Sciences
November 2020 marked 2 y since the launch of the Earth BioGenome Project (EBP), which
aims to sequence all known eukaryotic species in a 10-y timeframe. Since then, significant …
