Congratulations to @groth-anja.bsky.social on receiving the Novo Nordisk Foundation Jacobæus Prize 🏆 we’re proud to see Anja's mentorship, leadership, & pioneering work in epigenetic cell memory getting top recognition 👏 celebrating the contributions of past & present lab members to this work too 🥳

Our latest collaboration with the talented Susi @sbantele.bsky.social and Jiri Lukas is out now @science.org 🤩. We reveal the hidden price for DNA repair, with potential implications for genome function, gene therapy and ageing👇

Repair of DNA double-strand breaks leaves heritable impairment to genome function

Upon DNA breakage, a genomic locus undergoes alterations in three-dimensional chromatin architecture to facilitate signaling and repair. Although cells possess mechanisms to repair damaged DNA, it is ...

Some (+)ve news to lighten another heavy weekend: our latest preprint (c/o Mattiroli + Ramani labs) is up! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... A tour-de-force by 1st authors Bruna Eckhardt & @palindromephd.bsky.social, focusing on chromatin replication. RTs welcome; tweetorial in 3,2...(1/n)

The eukaryotic replisome intrinsically generates asymmetric daughter chromatin fibers

DNA replication is molecularly asymmetric, due to distinct mechanisms for lagging and leading strand DNA synthesis. Whether chromatin assembly on newly replicated strands is also asymmetric remains un...
