@jeffvierstra.bsky.socialNew commentary from the lab - can we identify principles of transcriptional regulation & cis-regulatory element (CRE) control of gene expression? With @jcornwallscoones.bsky.social & @joadelas.bsky.social in @cp-molcell.bsky.social A thread 🧵 doi.org/10.1016/j.mo...
Show PostSystematic mapping of enhancers, silencers, and topological elements using prime editing deletion screens www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... Check out our preprint on next-generation tech for mapping distal regulatory effects! We’re excited to help set this up - please get in touch Thread 👇

Show PostDelighted to see our latest paper out in @natgenet.nature.com ! The brilliant @jhamley98.bsky.social developed MCCv, allowing chromatin architecture to be visualised at base-pair resolution for each allele—a powerful way to identify functional genetic variants. www.nature.com/articles/s41... 🧵
