science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… The Drosophila genome is organized by 2 types of elements: tethers mediate focal contacts, while insulators establish #TAD boundaries. We used genome editing and live transcription imaging to explore their roles in the temporal regulation of #Hox gene expression in the embryo. Image
