β-actin loss can affect gene expression and heterochromatin organization. Here the authors conduct a comprehensive genomic analysis of β-actin knockout mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) to investigate the impact of changes in β-actin levels on 3d genome architecture and chromatin remodeling activities of BAF and polycomb proteins.
