3D genome structure guides sperm development, shedding light on fertility and developmental disorders

Two new studies show how a seeming tangle of DNA is actually organized into a structure that coordinates thousands of genes to form a sperm cell. The work, published as two papers in Nature Structural & Molecular Biology, could improve treatment for fertility problems and developmental disorders.
