ABSTRACT
Significance Human DNA is 2 m long and folded into a 10-μm-sized cellular nucleus. Experiments have revealed two major features of genome organization: Segregation alternating active inactive regions compartments, formation compacted local domains. These were hypothesized to be formed by different mechanisms: Compartments can microphase separation domains active, motor-driven, loop extrusion. Here, we integrate these mechanisms polymer model show that their interplay coherently explains diverse experimental data for wild-type mutant cells. Our results provide framework the interpretation chromosome organization in phenotypes highlight chromatin complex, matter shaped an phase segregation
