Abstract

Biologists have the capability to edit a genome at the nanometer scale and then observe whether or not the edit affects the structure of a developing organ or organism at the centimeter scale. Our understanding of the underlying mechanisms driving this emergent phenomenon from a multiscale perspective remains incomplete. This review focuses predominantly on recent experimental developments in uncovering the mechanical interplay between the chromatin and cell scale since mechanics plays a major role in determining nuclear, cellular, and tissue structure. Here, we discuss the generation and transmission of forces through the cytoskeleton, affecting chromatin diffusivity and organization. Decoding such pieces of these multiscale connections lays the groundwork for solving the genotype-to-phenotype puzzle in biology.

通过细胞变形重组染色质
生物学家有能力在纳米尺度上编辑基因组,然后在厘米尺度上观察编辑是否会影响发育中的器官或生物体的结构。从多尺度的角度来看,我们对驱动这一新兴现象的内在机制的理解仍不全面。本综述主要关注揭示染色质与细胞尺度之间机械相互作用的最新实验进展,因为机械在决定核、细胞和组织结构方面发挥着重要作用。在此,我们将讨论力的产生和通过细胞骨架的传递,从而影响染色质的扩散和组织。解码这些多尺度连接的片段为解决生物学中基因型到表型之谜奠定了基础。
