    • Abstract:
      The article discusses research by the author and his colleagues at Baylor College of Medicine in which they determined that the human genome's DNA folds in a way that forms roughly 10,000 loops in human cells. The research team determined how the loops are produced and that the loops help to regulate the activity of genes.
