Understanding how genomes are spatially organized is central to many aspects of cell biology. However, it has been difficult to study the relationships between sister chromatids because sequencing-based techniques such as Hi-C could not distinguish identical sister DNAs. Here, I discuss recent developments that provide insights into sister chromatid organization.
Keywords: Hi-C; chromosome; cohesin; sister chromatids.
