This year’s medicine laureates Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun studied a relatively unassuming 1 mm long roundworm, C. elegans. Despite its small size, C. elegans possesses many specialised cell types such as nerve and muscle cells also found in larger, more complex animals, making it a useful model for investigating how tissues develop and mature in multicellular organisms. Read how the 2024 medicine laureates’ investigations into C. elegans revealed an entirely new dimension to gene regulation: bit.ly/4dlPE6f #NobelPrize

Victor Ambros and Daniel Cifuentes have made clear the importance of research in model organisms, like C.elegans 🪱 or zebrafish 🐟, to understand human disease 👏👏

And another new preprint from the lab, led by S. Paul, K. Ilkhani, and N. Strozewski, collaboration with Shvartsman lab: we identify ERK-dependent phosphosites in Capicua (Cic), and show in vivo that mutating these sites turns Cic into a “super-repressor”. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New preprint from the lab, led by @bbrown_m : we uncover a function for #Drosophila Minibrain/DYRK1A in the neuroepithelium, and show that Mnb engages the Reps/Rlip/Rala signaling network to control brain development. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Victor Ambros, PhD, & Ye Duan, PhD’23, believe their research, published in @PNASNews, will help inform researchers pursuing a treatment for a recently IDed class of neurodevelopmental & autism-spectrum disorders called Argonaute syndromes: brnw.ch/21wIciw @yE_oSCAR_dUAN

Mutations in Argonaute proteins can significantly disrupt the miRNA biogenesis and functionality in target repression, and cause neurodevelopmental diseases. But how? Check out our new paper about modeling Argonaute Syndrome in C. elegans. 👇👇👇 pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Excited to share our #preprint in which we uncover a new subcellular site of Hippo pathway signalling with links to tissue morphogenesis and mechanobiology. A 🧵 1/10 doi.org/10.1101/2023.0…

@biorxivpreprint Check out the first work from the Krietenstein lab. Our approach to dissect histone PTM specific genome organization. Relentless work from @MariaMetelova to optimize Micro-C-ChIP conditions for high-quality sample preparation. I am immensely proud to see this online!
