#NuclearMigration
🧵 1/8: Excited to share our new paper on how heterochromatin (tightly packed DNA) helps cell nuclei migrate through tight spaces in #Celegans! Published in @genetics_asa #CellBiology #NuclearMigration pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40335054/ Congrats @danstarrucdavis.bsky.social and 1st author Ellen!
Nuclear deformability depends on H3K9-methylated heterochromatin anchorage to the nuclear periphery in Caenorhabditis elegans - PubMed
Nuclei adjust their deformability while migrating through constrictions to enable structural changes and maintain nuclear integrity. The effect of heterochromatin anchored at the nucleoplasmic face of...
