Waves of regulation control an important developmental gene In a new study published in Genes & Development, research led by Dr Lila Allou at the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) in London and Professor Stefan Mundlos at the Max Planck Institute for Mo...

A new study shows how different regulatory genetic elements control when a key developmental gene is active in the body.

The findings could explain subtle differences seen in patients with congenital limb malformations, for which the underlying disease mechanisms often remain unknown.

🚨 Why can’t mammals regenerate limbs like frog tadpoles or salamanders?
In our new paper in @science.org , we show that species-specific oxygen sensing acts as a gatekeeper for initiating limb regeneration 🐭🐸

TriRhena Gene Regulation Club The TriRhena Gene Regulation Club is a one-day symposium that brings together researchers from France (IGBMC), Germany (MPI-IE) and Switzerland (FMI) who share a common interest in gene regulation.

It is a beautiful day in the TriRhena region. ☀️ 😎 Perfect for traveling to today’s Gene Regulation at @igbmc.bsky.social in Strasbourg 🇫🇷.

Check out the program with exciting talks in chromatin, transcription & ZGA including the NewPI talk by @simonelsasser.bsky.social.

Flyer for symposium: https://ctrlepiedit.sciencesconf.org/

Very excited to announce the FIRST symposium on epigenome editing! These tools are becoming widely used in mol bio, ag & therapy. It's time to bring leaders together to discuss this rapidly growing and exciting field. And why not in Paris! Please register & share! (1/2) ctrlepiedit.sciencesconf.org

I am very happy to share that I've started my new position @upcite.bsky.social and opened my lab @institutimagine.bsky.social 🎉

In the lab we will study how differences in X-linked gene dosage between the sexes affect fetal growth and survival and contribute to sex differences later in life 👩‍🔬🧪🧬🧫

Congratulations Agnese!!!! 🎉🥂
All the best for the start of the lab! I look forward to seeing work from your lab 🤩

Find our latest Perspective article in Nature Genetics on "The role of KRAB zinc-finger proteins in expanding the domestication potential of transposable elements" at www.nature.com/articles/s41..., with implications for the future of research on the cause of human disease.

We wrote a piece on how easy it is to write gene regulatory sequences. - Turns out, it isn't that easy even though we know a lot about cis-regulation.

huge credit to @carldeboer.bsky.social to seeing this through so our thoughts aren't lost. I promise, it's a worthwhile read!

During germline epigenetic reprogramming, Polycomb must be restricted in the gametes to ensure proper genome regulation in the fertilized embryo. 2 must-read papers assess what happens when Ezhip (Polycomb antagonist) is lost. They come to highly similar conclusions and should be read in tandem 1/4
