An extra goodie, where we I tried to see whether Pol II clusters (cyan) are placed in pockets of low chromatin content, connecting via low-chromatin channels to NPC-rich export patches. I suppose both is the case.
Very happy to see this out! Great work by @lockwop.bsky.social @crick.ac.uk and first paper on NTMs from the lab! Parise made a set of 12 fluorescently labelled NTMs covering environmental and opportunistic mycobacteria...

We often think of cell identity as the result of biochemical signals, soluble or membrane-bound. Join to the @fnucleosome.bsky.social seminar series if you would like to know more on how nanoscale extracellular topography can directly regulate cell identity in embryonic stem cells.

The Trojan Horse is real, and it’s microscopic! 🐴🦠
Our paper is out today in @cellcellpress.bsky.social!
We discovered that deltaviruses physically hide INSIDE helper viruses to sneak into new cells. And to prove it, we had to image them from every angle. 🧵👇

Interesting review from the Notani lab on the different functions and regulatory architectures of transcriptional hubs- including #actin; doi.org/10.1016/j.gd...
Finding one mutation that improves a protein is hard. Finding five that work together is exponentially harder.
Today in @science.org, Hsu and Konermann labs present MULTI-evolve, a lab-in-the-loop framework that does it in just one machine learning-guided round.
When geometry isn’t enough, actin helps plant cells decide where to divide, ensuring robust tissue patterning. 🌱 #PlantBiology
Goldy & team uncover a central role for F-actin as a cortical landmark.
