Don't miss out! On March 14th at 12PM EST EpiCypher CSO Michael Keogh will present, 'Next generation epigenetic insight with fully-defined nucleosomes.' Register today: hubs.la/Q02lXzHb0
Product of a collaborative project with the newly minted Dr. Chad Hicks PhD (huge congratulations to same !) : H2BK120 controls access to a hub of nucleosome engagement : the acidic patch. Cynthia Wolberger Chad Hicks EpiCypher, Inc. #nucleosome biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Full text now out! Fantastic collaboration with EpiCypher, Inc. showing that nucleosome context matters for histone PTM readout, and that patterns of PTMs function both through direct readout and through conformational regulation eLife - the journal Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology

A Zidovska NYU Physics shows exciting work proposing that chromatin behaves as a Maxwell fluid (MF) before differentiation but as a MF + Kelvin solid after. Euchrom activity is critical for organisation

We now have Anupam Mondal from Anatoly B. Kolomeisky group at Rice University presenting theoretical predictions of an important role for nucleosome breathing: facilitating targetting by pioneer transcription factors

Meet us at the coffee break now, and after that, we have talks by: Maria Mills, Sofi Quinodoz, @remohs and Alexandra Zidovska
Ritika Gupta Ritika Gupta from Priya Banerjee presents super cool work in collaboration with Emma Morrison and The PotoyanGroup on the thermoresponsive behaviour of mononucleosome condensates and the viscoelasticity of tail/DNA condensates
Second is Emma Morrison Emma Morrison discussing their work on phase separation of nucleosomes and how charge-modulating H3 modifications regulate it

and stay tuned for exciting new work systematically probing H3 coming up soon 🔥🔥🔥
First is Mario Halic HalicLab, discussing their cryo-EM work on how Oct4 binds nucleosomes forming dynamic complexes. Histones and their modifications emerged as crucial regulators

Happy to share this just out in eLife (full text to follow soon) 👇This was a really great collaboration with EpiCypher, Inc. and very excited about the results! CU Anschutz Medical Campus Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology
Excited to be co-organizing the 2024 Van Andel Institute (VAI) Epigenetics Symposium July 8-10. This year's theme will be 'Cancer Epigenetics' with keynote lectures from Drs. Kristian Helin and Steve Baylin. vai.org/event/vai-epig…
