The condensation of HP1-????/Swi6 imparts nuclear stiffness

This study shows that Swi6 condensation provides mechanical stiffness to the nucleus, demonstrating a mechanical function of biomolecular condensates.

Loops and the activity of loop extrusion factors constrain chromatin dynamics

This study investigates how loop extrusion factors and chromatin structure influence chromatin dynamics using microscopy, genetics, and simulations in fission yeast.
