#ResultatScientifique 🔎 L'équilibre entre activation et répression des gènes est crucial pour le développement et chez les plantes ils existent des protéines "gardiennes" de ce mécanisme ! ✍️ O. Mathieu & G. Moissiard 👋 @Inserm @CNRS_OccitaniE ▶️ insb.cnrs.fr/fr/cnrsinfo/des…

Why is it that gene promoters are so good at avoiding DNA methylation? Work from Ming Wang, Yan He et al., shows that H3K4me3, enriched at promoters, acts as an anti-DNA methylation mark by recruiting DNA demethylase enzymes! Nice work guys! rdcu.be/d9rPo

Sydney Brenner’s Loose Ends columns were one of the great pleasures of reading @CurrentBiology in the 1990’s. This one is a letter to his fictional nephew Willie, on his advancement to “Distinguished Professor.” cell.com/current-biology/lib…

Alain Aspect, notre nouveau prix Nobel de physique, dit avoir eu le temps de mener ces recherches. En France, les chercheurs manquent de temps. Ils sont dévorés par l'activité bureaucratique. Faisons leur confiance, laissons-les travailler, faute de quoi, ils partiront.

Very excited to see our last work published in @embojournal! A great collaboration with Taku Sasaki, Kakutani’s lab, and Colot’s lab. We show how co-evolution of transposon-encoded anti-silencing systems lead to novel epigenetic control mechanisms. doi.org/10.15252/embj.202111… 🧵

Hey people, I did not leave out the fact that sometimes you have to pay to get your paper published, I addressed it here. Please be patient, it will take a few videos to cover the entire dark comedy that is academics. nitter.cf/dglaucomflecken/status…

Serratus is now published in @Nature :) nature.com/articles/s41586-0… We searched 5.7M seq libraries (10.2 petabases) for all 15,000 known RNA viruses. In 11 days, we uncovered 130,000+ new RNA viruses (incl 9 new CoV, with a twist). That’s near an order of magnitude bump. [1/N] 🧵👇

CRISPR technologies are powerful gene editing tools because they are programmable. We are excited to describe 3 new programmable systems, IscB, IsrB, and TnpB, some of the most abundant genes on the planet, with potential for gene editing. @ScienceMagazine science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

I hope you'll find this paper interesting! I hope it helps improve our understanding of DNA methylation mechanisms in plants And who knows... maybe a similar pathway will turn out to be conserved in animals! Here for a cool human JDP acting on histones: sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
