Accumulation of a Biparentally Inherited Neptune Transposable Element in Natural Killifish Hybrids (Fundulus diaphanus × F. heteroclitus)
Abstract. Transposable elements (TEs) are abundant selfish genetic elements that can mobilize in their host genome, causing DNA damage, mutations, and chro

New preprint from the lab led by former masters student AJ Roussel in collaboration with Alexander Suh and @fjruizruano.bsky.social. We found a ~4-fold accumulation of a Neptune #transposon in asexually reproducing "F1" fish hybrids. An unexpected and fascinating finding! #TEsky

Transposable elements (TEs) are abundant selfish genetic elements that can mobilize in their host genome, causing DNA damage, mutations and chromosome rearrangements. TE silencing is thus critical, an...

The chance of the broccoli-headed fascists reaching NIH and destroying online NCBI tools and datasets we rely on isn't 0%, so it's worth making a list of the mirrors/alts offered by EMBL-EBI, etc that many of us (including me) are unaware of.

They kicked all the experts out. No way these 20-something chuds know anything about COBOL or Assembly. Grok is writing their code.

Finally verkko 2.0 is out! github.com/marbl/verkko Waiting for your bug reports;)

My dream for 46 t2t scaffolds on the de novo human genome assemblies out of the box is still a dream, but for some samples we are really close.
