Check it out, Chromatin Kids!

Chromatin remodeller does stuff to Transcription Factors!

Functions where it is seldom seen!

Both decreases and increases chromatin accessibility!

How cool is that?

Giant study finds a research field that’s mostly reproducible Researchers assessed more than 1,000 results from fruit-fly immunity research published between 1959 and 2011. The majority of findings look verifiable.

Model organism communities are fantastic. Good work, "Drosophilists"! www.nature.com/articles/d41...

DNA G-quadruplex structures act as functional elements in α- and β-globin enhancers - Genome Biology Background Enhancer elements interact with target genes at a distance to modulate their expression, but the molecular details of enhancer–promoter interaction are incompletely understood. G-quadruplex...

How does (local #DNA) structure affect (3D #genome) structure? Can mutating G4s abolish #enhancers key for #blood function?

In the second part of our explorations of #G4s in gene regulation, we show how abolishing G-quadruplex structures in the genome disrupts enhancers. 1/9

Happy to be part of this exciting work. A must-read for enhancer aficionados: A massive effort has gone into generating genome-wide STARRseq in hPSCs and conducting functional validation assays. Congratulations to all authors, Stefan and Ufuk, for leading this project 🎉.

Please get in touch if you want to apply for this to work with me on chromatin remodellers, enhancers and lineage commitment in mammalian stem cells at @lsiexeter.bsky.social

I will soon start recruiting for a Wellcome-funded postdoc position! I’ll be at the #BNA2025 meeting next week. If you like cortical development, wiring, and post-transcriptional regulation, do get in touch and we can have a chat in Liverpool! 😀

Job alert 🚨 We are hiring a research assistant!

This 7-year position available @exeter.ac.uk from Sept 2025 will involve keeping the lab running as well as contributing to our research activities on brain development. Full details tinyurl.com/23nyds34.
