For example, the relationships between different topologically associating domains (TADs) and sub-TAD regulatory loops are uncertain due to the lack of appropriate computational tools and high-resolution experimental data. Herein, we developed a computational methodology for studying chromosomal organization across scales and applied it to high-resolution chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) data using activatory and inhibitory lineages of T lymphocytes as a model. We identified shared and cell type-specific TADs and sub-TAD loops at 5 Kb resolution. Global analysis revealed megabase-scale and inter-chromosomal interactions, including many cell type-specific meta-TAD associations (meta-domains) containing multiple functionally important genes such as Ctla4, Ikzf2, Ets1, Lef1, Runx1, Bach2, Foxo1 and others. Reanalysis of published data confirmed the reproducibility of these metadomain interactions in both mouse and human T cells. Genome-wide metadomain clustering identified several intra-chromosomal and three inter-chromosomal hubs with distinct histone marks, indicating compartment-like structures, with one active hub linked to general gene activation across immune cells and another being highly specific to T cells. Building and analyzing a compendium of new and public epigenomic T cell data enabled identification of ultra-long-range meta-loop interactions underlying metadomains and inference of distinct architectural factors associated with short-range sub-TAD loops and long-range metaloops. Altogether, our study reveals new cell type-specific 3D chromosomal structures across scales in T cells. The computational methodology is broadly applicable to analyses of 3D genome organization across different cell types and experimental systems.","dates":{"publication":"2026/06/25"},"accession":"GSE276749","cross_references":{"GSM":["GSM8505159","GSM8505158","GSM8505163","GSM8505162","GSM8505161","GSM8505160"],"GPL":["24247"],"GSE":["276749"],"taxon":["Mus musculus"],"PMID":["[42105235]"]}}
