The study spatial chromosome structure and chromosome folding in the interphase cell nucleus is an important challenge of world science. Detection of eukaryotic genome regions that physically interact with each other could be done by modern sequencing technologies. A basic method of chromosome folding by total sequencing of contacting DNA fragments is HI-C. Long-range chromosomal interactions play an important role in gene transcription and regulation. The study of chromosome interactions, 3D (t
