Chromosome conformation capture
Chromosome conformation capture techniques (often abbreviated to 3C technologies or 3C-based methods) are a set of molecular biology methods used to analyze the spatial organization of chromatin in a cell. These methods quantify the number of interactions between genomic loci that are nearby in 3-D space, but may be separated by many nucleotides in the linear genome. Such interactions may result from biological functions, such as promoter-enhancer interactions, or from random polymer looping, where undirected physical motion of chromatin causes loci to collide.
Projet Génome humain
vignette|Le génome humain est constitué de l'ensemble de l'information portée par nos 23 paires de chromosomes. Le (PGH, ou HGP pour l'anglais Human Genome Project) est un programme lancé fin 1988 dont la mission était d'établir le séquençage complet de l'ADN du génome humain. Son achèvement a été annoncé le . Le nouveau projet lancé dans la foulée en , ENCODE (Encyclopedia of DNA Elements), donne des résultats importants sur l'ADN non codant humain.
