An exciting story we've dicovered in my postdoc time! Have you heard 4mC in eukaryotes? No but now here it is! We've found 4mC indeed exist in a eukaryote Marchantia sperm and important for sperm function along with another 5mC DNA reprogramming during sperm development! ☀️

We discover a new functional DNA modification in #eukaryotes, 4mC. 4mC is catalyzed by two novel methyltransferases specifically expressed in #Marchantia #sperm. 4mC covers all genes in mature sperm and is essential for sperm function! #methylation #reprogramming Please RT!

Check out our review on the progress of starch modification in Arabidopsis and crops! Huge thanks to @ScientistErica and my supervisor David Seung :) (Particularly fond of table 1 with lovely starch shape traces made by Erica)

Me and @Jiaaawen helped write a review article all about starch!: Towards targeted starch modification in plants sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Hope you all enjoy! We enjoyed writing it :) #academicchatter #plantsci

Very cool paper in @NatureGenet about a bipartite Polycomb signature (H3K27ac on promoters, H3K27me3 on gene bodies) in stem cells and development! #Abs1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nature.com/articles/s4158…

If you like this story, you may like my thread on another preprint, where we establish 4mC as a DNA modification in eukaryotes with a function in sperm development and discover a new family of eukaryotic DNA methyltransferase! twitter.com/James_Walker30… biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I’m so excited to share this really amazing story that started as a side project during my PhD with @XiaoqiFeng_m. We found a new type of DNA methylation in eukaryotes essential for sperm function! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… A thread: 0/9

What a fantastic discovery! It opens up so many additional questions. Can’t wait to see how many other eukaryotes possess this N4mC Dnmt and how their genomes use it. Great job! @James_Walker303 @XiaoqiFeng_m

Wow, 4-methyl-cytosine detected in a eukaryote. While it's an extraordinary finding, the evidence looks overwhelming. I wonder what other contexts and organisms this will be found in.

A sugar-painting artist from Ningbo, east China's Zhejiang, brings to life a Chinese dragon with liquid sugar, leaving many netizens in awe. Featuring diverse patterns with boiled syrup, sugar painting is a traditional Chinese folk art with over 600 years of history.
