摘要:

真核细胞中的染色质DNA高度折叠形成复杂的三维结构,其空间组织方式对精准调控基因的表达和细胞发挥正常功能都起着重要的作用。细胞终末分化成熟过程中形态及基因表达谱常发生显著改变,同时伴随着明显的基因组三维结构变化。本文在简单介绍三维基因组多层次组织结构(染色质领域、A/B区室、拓扑相关结构域和成环构象等)基础上,重点综述了细胞终末分化过程中三维基因组结构变化与功能调控方面的研究进展,并探讨了当前三维基因组研究在解析细胞分化成熟过程时存在的问题和前景。

Abstract:

The eukaryotic chromatin is folded into highly complex three-dimensional (3D) structures, which plays an important role in the precise regulation of gene expression and normal physiological function. During differentiation and terminal maturation, cells usually undergo dramatic morphology and gene expression changes, accompanied by significant changes in the 3D structure of the genome. In this review, we provide a comprehensive view of the spatial hierarchical organization of the genome, including chromosome territories, A/B compartment, topologically associating domains (TADs) and looping, focusing on recent progresses in the dynamic 3D genomic structural changes and functional regulation during cell differentiation and terminal maturation. In the end, we summarize the unsolved issues as well as prospects of the 3D genome research in cell differentiation and maturation.

Key words: 3D genome, A/B compartment, topologically associating domain (TAD), looping, cell terminal differentiation
