Does 6mA exist in eukaryotic DNA? This is our take on this dispute: yes it does, and can be very abundant, but mostly correlates with presence of the MT-A70 writer AMT1. Then, 6mA is associated with transcriptionally-permissive chromatin (H3K4me3) 1/6: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

We are looking for PhD students to work on a follow up of this work. In principle, full tuition funding would be restricted to 🇨🇳 or 🇲🇽 (@Conahcyt_Mex) candidates, but please get in touch with me. The adverts are here: findaphd.com/phds/project/in… and here: qmul.ac.uk/sbbs/postgraduate…
First major work fully made in the laboratory is out in @biorxivpreprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…. We found that DNA methylation allows recurrent endogenization of giant virus in a protist🦠 closely related to animals, large scale virus and eukaryotic host genomic mixture.🧵 1/10

I think this GIF is representative of the latest #Ichthyosporea story led by @deMendoza_Alex & @SarreLuke
Dive into fascinating 5mC methylation biology in these fascinating #protsits !
Very happy to have contributed a tiny part, it was a blast to have Luke over for some months!

Very excited to put this work of ours in the @deMendoza_Alex lab out into the world, and expand the known versatility of DNA methylation for mitigating genomic threats!

A farcical and beautiful project. So happy we made it come to life!
During the high point of pandemic discontent my friends and I made this weird little movie. It stars me, a phone booth, and thousands of Chuck E. Cheese playpit balls. youtu.be/dAX8F6a3Rl4
