Chromatin states in the field of epigenomics refer to the organization and modification of chromatin, which is a complex of DNA and proteins found in cells. These states play a crucial role in regulating gene expression and can influence various cellular processes. Understanding chromatin states is essential in epigenomics, as they provide insights into how genetic information is regulated and expressed in different cellular contexts.
