Counting and characterizing molecules in their biological environment, whether in cells, extracellular matrix or biomimetic systems, is an important challenge for our fundamental understanding of life but also for clinic...

The dynamics of the chromosomal DNA of bacteria is arguably simpler than that of eukaryotic cells. Indeed, it is not separated from the rest of the cytoplasm by the nuclear envelope, and its compaction requires fewer lev...
