In TRANS-3 we will develop the theoretical and experimental framework to understand inter-chromosomal genome structure and activity. Despite advances in sequencing chromosomes and mapping their three dimensional (3D) organization, a full picture of 3D genome structure that details how the borders of various chromosome territories functionally interface one another is still missing. As an analogy, our world map does not indicate most natural corridors or manmade infrastructure that connect countries to one another. Worse, we barely understand how such connections function. My recent work has identified one of the few functional inter-chromosomal (trans) DNA interactions known to date: a…
