  • It has been reported that chromosome features such as gene density, GC content, replication time, compactness and nuclear position are all correlated-open chromatins tend to locate at the nuclear interior, replicate early, and have higher gene density and GC content as opposite to close chromatins-although the causal relationship among them remains to be elucidated
