Cohesin guides homology search during DNA repair using loops and sister chromatid linkages
Accurate repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) is essential for genome stability, and defective repair underlies diseases such as cancer. Homologous recombination uses an intact homologous sequenc...

Excited to share our paper on dynamics of microcompartments during M-to-G1 is now published in @natsmb.nature.com www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Compared to biorxiv, published includes new analysis from James Jusuf and Viraat Goel (from @andersshansen.bsky.social lab) on transcriptional spiking

We found a new asymmetry in the large-scale chromosome structure: sister chromatids are systematically shifted by hundreds of kb in the 5′→3′ direction of their inherited strands! The work was led by Flavia Corsi, in close collaboration with the Daniel Gerlich lab.

Learn how the teams from @ninacabezas.bsky.social and our MPI-IE metabolomics facility created a metabolism map of healthy, old and cancerous HSCs. Great podcast episode. ⬇️🎧
This week: the #metabolomics of HSPCs!
A new @natcellbio.nature.com study from Drs. Marialena Lalioti, Mari Carmen Romero-Mulero, Joerg Buescher, and @ninacabezas.bsky.social identifies metabolic changes that occur with differentiation, aging, and #AML.

Online Now: Off-pore Nup98 condensates mobilize heterochromatic breaks and exclude Rad51 Online now:
Off-pore Nup98 condensates mobilize heterochromatic breaks and exclude Rad51
Merigliano et al. identified a non-canonical, “off-pore” role for nucleoporins in genome stability and in the spatial regulation of homologous recombination in multicellular eukaryotes. Nup98 condensates form at DNA breaks within pericentromeric heterochromatin to prevent aberrant recombination by excluding Rad51, while promoting the mobilization of repair sites through immiscibility with heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) condensates.
