Mitotic reactivation and transcriptional bursting govern transcriptional noise in the early Drosophila embryo

Summary: Transcriptional variability in developing Drosophila embryos is time dependent, peaking after mitosis due to nucleus-to-nucleus differences in post-mitotic reactivation timings, and declining...

#ResultatScientifique 🔎| Faire taire les gènes est aussi crucial que les activer : le répresseur Snail révèle son rôle essentiel dans le développement embryonnaire 🧬 ✍️ @laghalab.bsky.social et Ovidiu Radulescu 📕 @natcomms.nature.com | buff.ly/pmtzA1t

L’art délicat de faire taire les gènes

Le développement embryonnaire ne requiert pas uniquement l’activation des gènes, mais également une régulation fine de leur répression.

We are all super happy and proud to see our work on the function and evolution of the #cephalic #furrow published in @nature.com. Let me say a few things about the background and history of this work on the #Evolution_of_Morphogenesis (1/12)

We had #four interdisciplinary teams, integrating dev-bio, evolution, tissue mechanics, and biophysical modeling, all going full throttle to understand the #CF. Still, it took more than 7 years to publish two papers back-to-back (10/12) www.nature.com/articles/s41... www.nature.com/articles/s41...

In Drosophila, the cephalic furrow counteracts mechanical stress as the developing head and the trunk tissues meet, providing evidence for how mechanical forces influence the evolution of morphog...

And again, Fantastic meeting! 🔬 Single-molecule studies are advancing biology into new territory—thrilled to be involved. 💡 #EMBLSingleMolecule

It was a great meeting. I hope we can do it again in 2 years. #EMBLsinglemolecule. Single mol omics and imaging is very promising combo to dissect gene regulation.

Arnaud Krebs@arnaudkr.bsky.social · last yr.

#EMBLsinglemolecule was a blast! Happy to host the birth of single molecule genomics as a field and to think about the future with the microscopy crowd. Thanks to participants and organizers!

📸 The photo gallery from the conference is live on the online event platform! Head over to check out the highlights, relive the best moments, and see if you can spot yourself in the crowd 👀✨ Thanks again to everyone who made it such a memorable event! #EMBLSingleMolecule

Honored to receive 1st Place Poster Award 🏆 at the EMBL meeting "Gene Regulation: One Molecule at a Time"! Thank you to all who visited and engaged in exciting discussions. Grateful to the organizers for an excellent event! #EMBLSingleMolecule

🍪 Taking a breather at 'Gene regulation: one molecule at a time' — where the science is complex, but the coffee is simple (and much needed!). From single-molecule insights to lively hallway conversations, it's clear: breakthroughs happen both in the lab and over lattes. ☕🧬 #EMBLSingleMolecule

🧩 The Human Bingo session at 'Gene regulation: one molecule at a time' in full swing! #EMBLSingleMolecule 🖊️ Scientists are swapping stories, checking boxes, and discovering they have more in common than just a love for transcription factors! The molecules aren’t the only things interacting today!

Lots of great talks in the first part of the day at #EMBLSingleMolecule 🧬 ➡️ 'The 3D gene structure of transcriptionally distinct fly brain cell types involves complex changes in promoter proximity to both cis-regulatory and non-canonical elements' 🎙️ Marcelo Nollmann – CNRS, France

💬❓ We like a good Q&A session – a lot of great questions following every talk at 'Genre regulation: one molecule at a time'! Keep asking yours, both in the auditorium and online 🙌🏼 #EMBLSingleMolecule @arnaudkr.bsky.social @embl.org

☕ #EMBLSingleMolecule Day 2 highlights 🧬 Mid-morning means one thing: coffee break – and an informal Meet the Speaker session! Attendees had the chance to chat casually with the presenters and ask follow-up questions. Great vibes, great coffee, and even better discussions! @laghalab.bsky.social

Kicking off #EMBLSingleMolecule Session 1: ➡️ 'Super-resolution imaging of transcription in living cells' 🎙️ Ibrahim Cisse – Max Planck Institute of Immunobiology and Epigenetics, Germany Chairs: Stirling Churchman & Daniel Larson 🙏🏼

#EMBLSingleMolecule is starting! Exciting 4 days ahead! @EMBLEvents

Welcome to the inaugural edition of 'Gene regulation: one molecule at a time' 🤩🧬 #EMBLSingleMolecule Most of the participants are already on site – now time for some science! Our Scientific Organisers: 🔹 @stirlingchurchman.bsky.social 🔹@arnaudkr.bsky.social 🔹 @laghalab.bsky.social 🔹 Daniel Larson
