Nonthermal ATP-dependent fluctuations contribute to the in vivo motion of chromosomal loci

Chromosomal loci jiggle in place between segregation events in prokaryotic cells and during interphase in eukaryotic nuclei. This motion seems random and is often attributed to Brownian motion. However, we show here that locus dynamics in live bacteria and yeast are sensitive to metabolic activity....
