Weill Cornell Medicine Apr 13 2026 Temporarily disabling a protein complex that organizes DNA into loops inside the cell's nucleus drastically disrupted the three-dimensional structure of the genome, but surprisingly most genes continued to function as usual, Weill Cornell Medicine researchers found. However, they also discovered a small group of affected genes that play a critical role in guiding cells to become specific types, for example heart, brain, or liver cells. The study, published
