The second chapter of our journey exploring MYT1L’s functions is live on bioRxiv. We mapped MYT1L binding in vivo using CUT&RUN and defined a novel role of MYT1L in suppressing early neuronal development programs. @CarpeRibosomam @joeddougherty

Last but not least, @din0506 will be presenting our newly preprinted work on how sex, age, and cell-type impact the function of psychiatric-associated variants in vitro and in vivo . Stop by his poster #77, & check out the preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Sex significantly impacts the function of major depression-linked variants in vivo

Genome-wide association studies have discovered blocks of common variants—likely transcriptional-regulatory—associated with major depressive disorder (MDD), though the functional subset and their...
