Abstract: Chromosome 3D architecture is involved in key functional processes, such as the regulation of contacts between genes and enhancers. I review recent developments in the field. Next, to understand the mechanisms underlying chromosome folding at the single-molecule level, I discuss models of polymer physics to investigate DNA loci in human HCT116 and IMR90 wild-type and Cohesin depleted cells. Our models were validated against single-cell imaging data providing evidence that mechanisms of loop-extrusion and polymer phase separation (whereby chromatin self-assembles in segregated globules) can co-exist in shaping chromatin spatial organisation. The thermodynamic degeneracy of single-molecule conformations results in broad variability of single cell DNA structures. Globules, in particular, turn out to establish stable environments where specific loop contacts are highly favoured over stochastic encounters. Cohesin depletion turns off phase separation and loop-extrusion, erasing average interaction patterns. Finally, in a reverse approach, the validated polymer structures are employed to benchmark chromatin contact technologies such as Hi-C, GAM and SPRITE.CAR-T CELLS IN CANCER: EMERGING CONCEPTS
