Chromatin accessibility and transcription factor binding through the perspective of mitosis
Rémi-Xavier Coux, Nick Owens, Pablo Navarro
Abstract
Chromatin accessibility is generally perceived as a common property of active regulatory elements where transcription factors are recruited via DNA-specific interactions and other physico-chemical properties to regulate gene transcription. Recent work in the context of mitosis provides less trivial and potentially more interesting relationships than previously anticipated.
