How do electrostatic forces impact TF search ? In joint effort with @beatfierz.bsky.social , tour-de-force from @simsakong.bsky.social who single-handedly combined in vitro SPT on DNA & chromatin, in cellulo SPT, ChIP-seq and ATAC-seq www.nature.com/articles/s41...
New from our lab @crick.ac.uk.
Nascent proteins emerge from the human ribosome into a cytosol packed with hundreds of different molecular chaperones.
Which chaperones recognise specific nascent chains, and what dictates their binding preferences?
