The open circles are experimental data and the solid lines are the calculated profiles.
3D equilibrium globule model of chromatin (black curve; df = 3, dw = 2) for S. cerevisiae (data from Ma et al.53): (a) Facs profile calculated from fDNA(t)53 (C = 0.94, P < 10−10); (b) I(t) (C = 0.87, P < 10−10); (c) Nf (t) (C = 0.89, P < 10−10). Fractal globule model of chromatin (black curve; df = 2.6, dw = 2.6) for HeLa (data from Guilbaud et al.15): (a’) Facs profile (C = 0.94, P < 10−10); (b’) I(t) (C = 0.94, P = 5.5 × 10−12); (c’) Nf (t), (C = 0.96, P = 3.5 × 10−2). 3D-2D equilibrium globule organization model of chromatin (red curve; df = 3 (62%), 2 (38%), dw = 2 see text) for HeLa (data from Guilbaud et al.15): (a’) Facs profile (C = 0.97, P < 10−10); (b’) I(t) (C = 0.96, P = 1.5 × 10−2); (c’) Nf (t), (C = 0.93, P = 6.3 × 10−2). is the Pearson linear correlation coefficient.
