How do non-coding variants in enhancers lead to disease? Happy to share our recent work, led by @ewholling.bsky.social, in which we discovered that poised chromatin sensitizes enhancers to aberrant activation by non-coding mutations, contributing to disease. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 1/

Congrats on the new paper to Krystal who "doesn't do social media" but does do a ton of ATAC and Cut&Run to show how GATA3 pioneers enhancers with BRG1 and sometimes AP-1! #NIEHS #NAR doi.org/10.1093/nar/...

A new combination technique enables DNA sequencing and high-resolution imaging in intact cells — offering new insights into progeria and aging. broad.io/expansion-in-situ @jbuenrostro.bsky.social

Our second cell-free DNA manuscript is here! In collaboration with Dr. Takada’s group, we explore how abemaciclib treatment response in metastatic breast cancer can be monitored via circulating chromatin fragments: www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-5...

🚀Excited to share preprint as my last work in the Tachibana lab! Our study shows how the pioneer factor NR5A2 ensures robust gene activation through feed-forward regulatory loops with lineage-determining factors. A quick summary follows (1/n) www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

🚨Amidst all the uncertainty at NIH Welcome Leap just launched an important new $50M program in Women’s Health👩🏻‍🔬🧠 CARE focuses on the link between Alzheimer’s and perimenopausal hormonal changes wellcomeleap.org/care/ Note: full indirects! Please share widely to support women’s health 🙏🏼

Excited to share our first preprint on cell-free DNA! Led by our talented grad student Sakuntha, we have developed a machine learning pipeline guided by ATAC-seq to identify unique nucleosomal fragment patterns in cancer patients. www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-5...
