In our new paper aided by single molecule imaging of RNA and transcription machinery we demonstrate how Polycomb Repressive Complex (PRC) represses transcription in live cells 🧵 nature.com/articles/s4155… 1/9

Re-analysis of CLAP data affirms PRC2 as an RNA binding protein and XIST RNA as a target. We (YongWoo Lee, Roy Blum, Michael Rosenberg) examined the datasets of Guo et al. (PMID 38387462 - which reported that PRC2 is not an RBP) ... biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Really looking forward to our next @irelandchrom webinar on Friday Nov 3rd at 4pm GMT / 5pm CET. Richard Jenner @RegGenomics from @UCL will speak on ‘Understanding the effects of RNA on PRC2 and other chromatin regulators’. Please register at: lnkd.in/enJPyet6

You were told that RNA is essential for PRC2 chromatin occupancy. We examined key evidence that previously supported this idea: it's an artefact.🧵 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excellent descriptive from Richard (@RegGenomics) detailing our work highlighting the loss of PRC2 chromatin occupancy under rChIP conditions as a symptom of non-specific chromatin precipitation. Please also check out the parallel study from @DavidovichLab @evan_healy4 @QiZhang85
Richard Jenner@RegGenomics

1/8 Our new pre-print from @HallHickman is out biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… We report that the apparent RNA bridging between PRC2 and chromatin observed by Long et al 2020 using rChIP is an artefact of non-specific chromatin precipitation Please alert colleagues using this method!🧵

Just a reminder there is one more week to apply to the #postdoc position available in my lab to work on the effects of nascent RNA on chromatin at @uclcancer Please see: atsv7.wcn.co.uk/search_engine/…
Richard Jenner@RegGenomics

We have a postdoc position available! If you’re interested in #RNA or #chromatin and especially both together then please apply! Deadline Feb 16th. Link:atsv7.wcn.co.uk/search_engine/… Please retweet!
