compaction¶
The gamtools compaction tool is used to calculate chromatin compaction from
GAM segregation tables. Chromatin compaction is estimated from the number of
NPs that contain a given chromatin region, since chromatin that occupies a larger
volume will be intersected by a greater number of NPs.
