What a fantastic discovery! It opens up so many additional questions. Can’t wait to see how many other eukaryotes possess this N4mC Dnmt and how their genomes use it. Great job! James Walker Xiaoqi Feng

Thanks Jimmy! ❤️ Well done🎊

If you like this story, you may like my thread on another preprint, where we establish 4mC as a DNA modification in eukaryotes with a function in sperm development and discover a new family of eukaryotic DNA methyltransferase! x.com/James_Walker30… biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Very cool DNA modification research

Wow, 4-methyl-cytosine detected in a eukaryote. While it's an extraordinary finding, the evidence looks overwhelming. I wonder what other contexts and organisms this will be found in.

Pretty cities, Beijing and Wuhan seen from Space😯👍! Thank you and Happy Niu Year🎊!

China welcomes delegations from across the world to attend the #Beijing2022 Winter Olympic Games and will definitely make the games worthwhile, Foreign Minister Wang Yi said Sunday at a meeting with ambassadors to China and other senior diplomats. bit.ly/3daX68U

A sugar-painting artist from Ningbo, east China's Zhejiang, brings to life a Chinese dragon with liquid sugar, leaving many netizens in awe. Featuring diverse patterns with boiled syrup, sugar painting is a traditional Chinese folk art with over 600 years of history.

Very cool paper in Nature Genetics about a bipartite Polycomb signature (H3K27ac on promoters, H3K27me3 on gene bodies) in stem cells and development! nature.com/articles/s4158…
