Although cohesin-sensitive, long-range enhancer activation is equivalent in nature to proximal activation. Cooperativity can arise from different levels of activation inputs operating on a non-linear response function. @eliasfriman.bsky.social @uoe-igc.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Slow RNAPII elongation enhances naive pluripotency rewiring while maintaining high replication fork speed
Slowing RNAPII velocity boosts naive pluripotency, uncovering an unexpected link to cell plasticity.

Members of the Lab, with other PhD students and postdocs from @cbm-csic-uam.bsky.social, had an inspiring conversation with Dr. Juan Méndez (cniostopcancer.bsky.social) on what PIs expect from new postdocs and academic career opportunities. A truly enriching exchange! ✨
Superinspiring!-as always
“I think it’s a real mistake to forget where the pipeline for all this begins.” John Diffley reflects on the importance of basic research, his mission to decode DNA replication and recreate it in the lab, and the scientific optimism of the 1960s that helped shape it. www.crick.ac.uk/news/2026-03...

EpiFlow: multidimensional single-cell epigenetic profiling by spectral flow cytometry
The epigenetic landscape of individual cells determines their identity and function, yet current methods for profiling chromatin modifications at single-cell resolution remain low-throughput, costly, or limited in parametric depth. Here we present EpiFlow, a spectral flow cytometry-based platform that enables the simultaneous quantification of 16 epigenetic markers, including histone post-translational modifications, DNA methylation, and hydroxymethylation, at the single-cell level. We demonstrate that EpiFlow is robust across species from yeast to mammals and resolves biologically meaningful epigenetic transitions during the cell cycle, stem cell differentiation, germinal centre B cell maturation, diabetic liver remodelling, and seizure-induced chromatin reprogramming. High-dimensional integration of EpiFlow data enables cell-type classification based solely on epigenetic profiles in liver, brain, blood, and cancer. Furthermore, EpiFlow detects on-target and off-target/indirect effects of epigenetic drugs in a high-throughput-compatible format. Collectively, these results establish EpiFlow as a broadly applicable platform for single-cell epigenetic analysis in basic, pharmaceutical, and translational research. ### Competing Interest Statement The authors have declared no competing interest.
