The paper identifies that CC and GG dinucleotides at specific positions influence nucleosome positioning in yeast and mouse genomes by destabilizing histone-DNA interactions.

This study maps chromatin accessibility and protamine incorporation during spermiogenesis, revealing compartment-specific dynamics and their role in genome stability.

This study uses single-molecule optical tweezers to show that high-concentration, high-molecular-weight PEG promotes chromatin compaction by enhancing internucleosomal interactions.

The paper introduces tsChIL, a method to analyze tissue-level epigenomic data from single-thin sections, enabling independent evaluation of cell population changes and gene activation in regenerating skeletal muscle.
