Abstract
AbstractThe mystery of how human DNA is compactly packaged into a nucleus—a space a hundred thousand times smaller—while still allowing for the regulation of gene function, has long been one of the greatest enigmas in cell biology. This puzzle is gradually being solved, thanks in part to the advent of new technologies. Among these, innovative genome-labeling techniques combined with high-resolution imaging methods have been pivotal. These methods facilitate the visualization of DNA within intact nuclei and have significantly contributed to our current understanding of genome organization. This review will explore various labeling and imaging approaches that are revolutionizing our understanding of the three-dimensional organization of the genome, shedding light on the relationship between its structure and function.
