- Very important work to reconcile canonical transcription initiation structures with the promoter diversity occurring in vivo. Some explanation on how the large majority of our promoters (TATA-less) ma initiate transcription through contacts downstream of the TSS.
- The @zeitlingerlab.bsky.social is pleased to announce @sergio-gma91.bsky.social’s preprint “High-resolution binding data of TFIID and cofactors show promoter-specific differences in vivo” (www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...). TLDR; TFIID behaves differently depending on promoter type. More below:
- Epigenetics that matters! Very cool work on hard to hard-to-access cell types . Finally some solid epigenetics examples that should be used in textbooks! Congrats to Mathieu and team @embl.org Rome!
- This went under the radar but answers a fundamental question in Epigenetics... From many hundreds of olfactory receptor genes, each neuron selects expression of only single one (near-randomly). How? Outstanding work from Mathieu Boulard and colleagues www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
- This is nuts. Dead ringers fused. Cronenberg would have loved that.
- A fascinating case report. The DNA of a female murder victim was genotyped and it turns out that she has been a chimera: a mixture of 46XX/46XY cell lines. The analysis (STR-based) found: 1. The maternal chromosome was identical between the two cell lines. www.fsigenetics.com/article/S187... 1/6

- This is not a HiC map! Ever wondered if multiple enhancers get activated simultaneously? We measured chromatin accessibility on thousands of molecules by nanopore to create genome-wide co-accessibility maps. Proud of @mathias-boulanger.bsky.social @kasitc.bsky.social Biology in the thread👇
- Activity of most genes is controlled by multiple enhancers, but is there activation coordinated? We leveraged Nanopore to identify a specific set of elements that are simultaneously accessible on the same DNA molecules and are coordinated in their activation. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
