Several roadblocks must be overcome to make molecular biology more sustainable, but @GreenLabGuy @ucl argues that we must treat sustainability like we do health and safety in the lab—as a necessity.

This study is amazing! I always wondered if the role of nucleosomes was more about DNA supercoils than 'packaging', these different topologies are a nice hint in that direction. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

oh, nice! congrats! It immediately remind me of the 1st experiments the 1st master student (Elena Gallego) of the lab did when we were setting up in 2013/14. Never found time to invest in this surprising images of Brd4-GFP in mitotic mouse ES cells... now it makes sense! Thx!

Thanks chromatin community! We’ve been digging around in your repetitive DNA (>40,000 ChIP-seq samples) and have discovered a totally unexpected role for BRD4 and JQ1 at centromeres. Very happy to share our preprint. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Biophysics question: In transcription, RNApol generates positive supercoils ahead of it and negative ones behind it WHY? Why doesn’t RNApol instead simply track 1 strand of the duplex, follow its helical twist along the duplex, and thus rotate without any supercoil generation?

@cees_dekker could this instead be an evolutionary question? If RNA polymerase originally evolved to replicate RNA, perhaps the supercoil problem resulting from dsDNA was solved by evolving mechanisms to cope with (and then exploit) this phenomenon? tinyurl.com/3emwdxuc
