🚨 Today in @Nature, we report GEMINI—a genetically encoded intracellular memory device that writes cellular dynamics into tree-ring-like fluorescent patterns within cytoplasmic protein assemblies.[1/n]

“Here we present evidence that eukaryotic circular RNAs (circRNAs) can serve as templates for 3' to 5' backward translation (BT), yielding polypeptides with distinct sequence and structural features not found in canonical proteomes.”

Our scMicro-C paper is out in @NatureGenet! Huge thanks to the reviewers for their valuable insights, to @XieSunney for unwavering support, and to fantastic collaborators @JiankunZhang21 & @tanlongzhi. Thrilled to share this work!
Very excited to share our work on high-resolution single-cell Micro-C, which is on bioRxiv now. Here we reveal that cohesin-mediated loop extrusion participates in transcription with kilobase-resolution single-cell 3D structures. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Introducing RAEFISH, our lab's new flagship image-based spatial transcriptomics technology that simultaneously enables single-molecule spatial resolution and whole-genome level coverage of long and short, endogenous and engineered RNA species in cell cultures and intact tissues.

We are excited to report the discovery of TIGRs, a widely-occurring RNA-guided system found in bacteria and their viruses. TIGRs consist of a peculiar repeat region which is transcribed into RNA and processed into multiple guide RNAs to direct TIGR-associated proteins to their DNA targets. science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Did you know cancer cells can be electrically active, just like neurons? This electrical activity plays a key role in tumor progression. Excited to share my first postdoc paper at @TheCrick (and first paper from @LiGroup_Crick), published in @Nature!

New #preprint from our lab at @IMBA_Vienna !
How do DNA breaks locate homology sites in the vast space of the human genome? We show how #cohesin guides homology search for faithful repair!

.@LanJiangBoston and colleagues developed droplet-based UDA-seq by incorporating a post-indexing step into two-round combinatorial indexing, enhancing throughput for large-scale single-cell analysis.

Thrilled to introduce a new single-cell 3D genome analysis tool to our toolkit! Our high-throughput droplet Hi-C (dscHi-C) and dscHi-C-multiome methods use droplet microfluidics to generate tens of thousands of single-cell Hi-C profiles with high sensitivity in a single batch.
dscHi-C allows us to investigate chromatin reorganization during mouse brain aging, while dscHi-C-Multiome reveals the complex relationship between genome structure and gene regulation. Learn more here:

It has been a wonderful collaboration with @MaoxuC, and I deeply appreciate @XieSunney 's support and guidance throughout the project.

WHY DOES THE EPIGENETIC CLOCK TICK?
While money has been poured into developing therapies to reverse the epigenetic clock (@altos_labs 🤑), why the epigenome changes with age at all is unclear.
In @NatureAging today, we suggest a potential driver: somatic mutations.
Congratulations!
After my first public report at the Double Helix 70’s celebration (bit.ly/4iONi3M) on Oct 2023 and a bioRxiv on June 2024, FOOtprinting by dsDNA DeamInasE (FOODIE), the major effort of my CPL/PKU group, delayed by the pandemic, has been yearmarked by today issue of PNAS (bit.ly/3BDpP4P). Congratulations to all team members, and looking forward to using this tool to decode the functional human genome with the community.

A foundation model for enzyme retrieval and function prediction is released.
EnzymeCAGE is trained on ~1M enzyme-reaction pairs via CLIP, and can be used to annotate unseen enzymes or orphan reactions.
We open-source it before releasing the manuscript: github.com/GENTEL-lab/Enzyme… – at Halawa, HI
