About this Research Topic
The Genome Organization and Dynamics section within Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences aims to publish high-quality fundamental and applied research encompassing organization, structure, and function of genomic processes.
This Research Topic is part of the Methods and Applications series and aims to highlight both long-standing methods and recent advances in experimental techniques used to investigate fundamental questions in structural genomics research, from chromatin structure and DNA repair to replication and transcription. We invite a range of article types, including Original Research, Reviews, or Opinions on methodologies or applications that highlight advantages and current limitations. This Topic includes technologies and up-to-date methods which help advance genomic science.
The contributions to this collection will undergo peer-review. Novelty may vary, but the utility of a method or protocol must be evident. We welcome contributions covering all aspects of genomic analysis. Submissions will be handled by the team of Topic Editors in the respective sections.
Scope and Information for Authors:
This Research Topic welcomes manuscripts addressing methods and applications relating, but not limited to, the following:
· DNA repair, replication, and associated pathways
· Telomeres
· Chromatin structure and epigenetics
· Genome 3D architecture
· Transcription dynamics
Manuscript submissions may be in one of the following forms:
· Methods: Describing either new or existing methods that are significantly improved or adapted for specific purposes. These manuscripts may include primary (original) data.
· Perspective or General Commentaries on methods and protocols relevant for physiology research.
· Reviews and mini-reviews of topical methods highlighting the important future directions of the field.
