Our paper describing the Range Extender element which is required and sufficient for long-range enhancer activation at the Shh locus is now available at @nature.com. Congrats to @gracebower.bsky.social who led the study. Below is a brief summary of the main findings www.nature.com/articles/s41... 1/

I hate to make you jealous, but today we had Marian Ros at the CABD, and we also inaugurated our new “model organisms” Xmas tree!
We had the pleasure of receiving today Marian Ros at #CABDseminars!

Amazing talk about a colaborative project!

Thanks for coming Marian Ros! Marian was hosted by @jlopezrios.bsky.social

SOX and POU are crucial Transcription Factors in animal development, believed to be innovations of this group. Here we find them in unicellular relatives of animals. And hold tight, you can use a choanoflagellate 🦠 SOX gene to make a full chimeric 🐁 ! Read more here 🧵: rdcu.be/d0dPN 1/6
