Are we ready for the next wegovy? At the #AsilomarChromatin conference and riveted by #TapasKumarKundu #JNCASR presentation on #MASH (formerly #NASH), #histone butyrylation, #adipogenesis, and LTK-14A a small molecule #p300-inhibitor. #obesity

Most definitely, #CoryPadilla #DovetailGenomics #CantataBio came to the right place ( #AsilomarChromatin Conference) to highlight the rapid and high-resolution #LinkPrep as an improved chromatin conformation capture approach.

At #AsilomarChromatin yesterday, #ShahirMorcos #UniversityofToronto #SickKids shared BioID analysis of BLBS #Histone H3.3 mutants showed altered interactions with PWWP-domain containing proteins that normally bind di/tri methylated H3K36. Could this be due to deregulation of methyltransferase?

Always thrilling to see #chromatin folks tackle brain disorders. At #AsilomarChromatin meeting, @mitchell-lab.bsky.social #UniversityofToronto proposes SRR2 (Sox2 Regulatory Region 2) enhancer deletion is possible mouse model for #schizophrenia because the ∆mice show loss of latent inhibition.

Cool talk by #ArpieBakhshian (#Padilla-Benavides lab, #WesleyanUniversity) @ the #AsilomarChromatin meeting on importance of copper in skeletal muscle differentiation (neat Cu-binding assay on western id's #CSRP2, Cysteine & Glycine Rich Protein 2) & showing sex difference in muscle regeneration.

Bryant-Li-Bhoj Syndrome (developmental delays/intellectual disability/craniofacial anomalies) is linked to Histone H3.3 mutations. #EricCampos #UniversityofToronto at today’s #AsilomarChromatin conference shared more H3.3 mutations & their consequence on modifications & protein interactions.

Gone BioID fishing with #ATRX? #AlejandroSaettone #UniversityofToronto #SickKids focused on chromatin-bound nuclear protein #CCDC71 (coiled-coil domain containing 71) and shared some ChIP-seq results to address where’s CCDC71?…and yes, we were a tad distracted by the fire. #AsilomarChromatin

#UCSC was well represented last night @ @asilomarchromatin.bsky.social conference with Alison Mills & Brandt Warecki (Sullivan lab). Watching movies of lagging chromosomes catch up so they’re not left behind is fascinating & makes me wonder how they “know” which cell to run to #AsilomarChromatin

Always been amazed how cells actually INTENTIONALLY cause double strand breaks. At @asilomarchroma last night, Cheyenne Sadeghi @FrockLab @Stanford showed evidence supporting that during #meiosis, #ATM kinase can suppress translocations after #SPO11 induces the meiotic double strand break.

Kicking off the 2024 @asilomarchromatin meeting with Maria Aristizabal Queen’s Univ drilling down on cancer-derived #histone mutations in budding yeast. Affect #genome integrity, transcription, and chromatin compaction! So cool that her first talk was THIS conference when she was an undergrad!
