Happy to share that my postdoc work with @jobdekker.bsky.social is out!

We characterize interphase chromatin folding programs with distinct modes of mitotic inheritance and identify the chromosome-intrinsic capacity to form a microcompartment of active CREs during mitotic exit.
Interphase chromosome conformation is specified by distinct folding programmes inherited through mitotic chromosomes or the cytoplasm
Nature Cell Biology - Schooley et al. find that mitotically bookmarked loci drive a transient chromosome folding state during G1 entry that is subsequently modulated by factors inherited through...

Exciting new paper out! @allanaschooley.bsky.social and Sergey Venev led this project that let to the discovery of two chromosome folding programs: one inherited via mitotic chromosomes and one mitotic inherited through the cytoplasm!

Thrilled to share our new work on #aging in the murine hematopoietic system! There is a lot here- stem cell numbers, self-renewal rates, mutation rates, mutation signatures, clonal fitness, environmental effects...

In lab’s #FIRSTPREPRINT, we present methods to measure nanometer-scale organization around & between specific proteins in condensates in live cells. We uncover unexpected heterogeneity for a liquid-like phase with local meshwork spanning 10-50nm, stemming from ribosome biogenesis in the nucleolus.
