We find the rate of cohesin loop extrusion in cells is set by NIPBL dosage and tunes many aspects of chromosome folding.
This provides a molecular basis for NIPBL haploinsufficiency in humans. 🧵👇

We uncover a previously uncharacterised and evolutionarily conserved chromatin architecture in premeiotic gonadal germ cells, revealed through integrated cytological and high-resolution Hi-C approaches.

We developed a new method called MCC ultra, which allows 3D chromatin structure to be visualised with a 1 base pair pixel size.

When you genotype crude cell lysates after colony picking, which PCR enzyme/buffer composition works best for you for genotyping >1.5kb amplicons?
KOD Xtreme is amazingly robust but so $$$😬
Thank you!

If you want to learn how targeting cohesin to defined loci in the genome affects the local chromatin environment and transcription, look no further!

We very happy to share our latest work trying to understand enhancer-promoter compatibility.
I am very excited about the results of @blanka-majchrzycka.bsky.social, which changed the way I think about promoters

Together with Christine Moene @cmoene.bsky.social, we explored what happens when you scramble the genome—revealing how Sox2’s position shapes enhancer activation.
