title: [The progress and research of chromosome territories (CTs)].
abstract: Chromosomes are non-randomly distributed in interphase nucleus, and each chromosome occupies a distinct domain in the chromosome territories (CTs), the positioning and arrangement of CTs are well-organized, at the same time, the chromosome territories have definite dynamics characteristics, the strict positioning and spatial organization of chromosome territories are closely related with gene expression regulation. This paper reviewed progress in these respects.
