Our new non-denaturing nanoscale 3D DNA tracing technology provides single-cell (and sister-chromatid specific!) readout of chromatin structure with 10kb genomic resolution - Check it out!

Congratulations to Kai and Oyvind!!
This seems like a really important paper comparing chromosome tracing methods, demonstrating that classical denaturing DNA-FISH and chromosome tracing leads to substantial distortion of 3D genome structure, likely due to the high-temperatures involved (70-90C):

Thank you very much, Takashi!

Did you know that DNA must form overlapping loops to give rise to the well-known X-shape of chromosomes? 🧬🧪
New research from EMBL's Ellenberg Group provides new insights into the process of chromosome formation.

We are #hiring!
We have two open postdoc/research scientist positions to join our #ERC funded project MITOFOLD to resolve the organization of mitotic chromosomes!
1) experimental biologist shorturl.at/LjGEM
2) data scientist shorturl.at/nDdhQ
Please share! 🙌
We look forward to your application! 🤩
Congratulations to @andibrunner.bsky.social
and the team, and many thanks to the lab of Jan-Michael Peters for support!
We found that the interphase and mitotic chromatin loop organization have more in common than previously thought:
In both stages big loops are built first, small ones second
My first own project is published:
Despite major differences in chromosome shape during #interphase and #mitosis, the underlying #loop-extruder based organization is highly similar
A new data resource and new insights into human chromatin biology! 🧬🥳
Our excellent postdoc Wanlu Zhang is at #CellBio24 and will talk about her unpublished NPC biogensis work tomorrow!
Check it out and say hello 🙌🏼
We are now on Bluesky!
