Really pleased to see our latest research featured on ABC today π. Our study mapped immune cells in the lungs of young children with CF and found inflammatory pathways linked to lung damage are present in early life, with some persisting despite breakthrough therapies

We are over the moon! π Dr. Marieke Oudelaar joins the MPI-IE as a new #MaxPlanck Director, heading the newly established Department of Genome Biology
She studies how the 3D folding of DNA controls gene expression β more details below β¬οΈ

π£ Preprint alert! We developed a method to analyze concurrent interactions between multiple chromatin regions at single alleles at sub-nucleosome resolution (multi-way Micro-Capture-C, mwMCC) & used this to study structural synergy within super-enhancers. 1/14

π¨Preprint Dropπ¨ We are very pleased to release our study on DNA methylation dynamics at enhancers during ESC differentiation! This work was led by Marlet Morales-Franco and Priscillia Lhoumaud π§΅(1/13) www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
Australian researchers have mapped how lung damage may begin early in life for children with cystic fibrosis, providing new insights that may help reshape future care.
Out today - structure of the human HIRA histone chaperone complex bound to nucleosomes. Ever wondered how nucleosomes are assembled in the wake of transcription? It takes a 'hulk of a protein complex'. Work by the amazing Wei Tian weetian558.bsky.social. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... π§΅

Cis-regulatory elements, such as enhancers, play an essential role in coordinating gene expression programs during cellular transitions. As such, substantial efforts have been made to characterize enh...

Why can't we explain enhancer action despite 2 decades of chromosome conformation technologies? π¬
Our new study spearheaded by Leonid Mirny's group points to a flaw in our assumptions, and to a solution from physical principles
