DNA is packed in a fractal-like manner as well.
That's actually one of the most important things we've learned about genome in recent time. Everyone knows that the content is important (ACGT, etc.), but what's also extremely important is the way it is packed. Particularly, it being a certain kind of fractal ensures that the parts of the densely packed DNA can go move around as needed efficiently.
