Description

We discuss the current knowledge on the fungal genome organization, from the association of chromosomes within the nucleus to topological structures at individual genes and the genetic factors required for the hierarchical organization. Chromosome conformation capture followed by high-throughput sequencing (Hi-C) has elucidated how fungal genomes are globally organized in Rabl configuration where centromere or telomere bundles are associated with opposite faces of the nuclear envelope. Here, we explore the presence, in fungal taxa, of the typical proteins associated with genome organization in eukaryotes.
