Pint of Science was again a great success in Lausanne, with >500 people attending our events! Kudos to co-coordinators @miriamlisci.bsky.social and @juliensluneau.bsky.social, and to the fantastic team of 19 volunteers at the bars 🥳! #PINT25 #scicomm
If you always wanted to know the kinetics of how the Polycomb enzymes modify chromatin, we are thrilled to share our work!!! 🎉📄🧬🔬 Thank you, @beatfierz.bsky.social for all the guidance as well as the @lcbm-epfl.bsky.social group members for all the support! doi.org/10.1126/scia...
Single-molecule analysis reveals the mechanism of chromatin ubiquitylation by variant PRC1 complexes
Single-molecule experiments show that active conformation formation controls chromatin ubiquitylation kinetics by variant PRC1.

Check out our new study of chromatin ubiquitylation. @alexateslenko.bsky.social visualized directly at single molecule scale how vPRC1 ubiquitylates neighboring nucleosomes. These results suggest potential mechanism on how H2Aub domains are established. 👇👇👇 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
