🆕 publication! 🧬 How do enhancers, located far away in the genome, communicate with their target genes? In @MolecularCell, the lab of @chribue shows how different enhancers cooperate to drive gene expression using a novel synthetic platform ➡️ tinyurl.com/yckubbjb
Online Now: A genome-wide screen identifies silencers with distinct chromatin properties and mechanisms of repression dlvr.it/TGHjyy
Hundreds of genome's off-switches were just mapped by @AlexanderStark8's lab. Using the new method 'silencer-seq', they identified more than 800 silencers in fruit flies. 🧬Now published in Molecular Cell! Read more: imp.ac.at/news/article/m… Paper: cell.com/molecular-cell…
It's official – I can now call myself a scientist! 🎉 Immensely grateful to my amazing colleagues who turned this challenging journey into a fun adventure. Thank you all! @stark_lab
Congratulations to @LorenaHofbauer PhD (@stark_lab, IMP), who recently defended her thesis: 'Systematic discovery of DNA sequences and protein domains mediating transcriptional repression' - Well done Lorena! 🥂🍾 @univienna @IMPvienna @IMBA_Vienna @gmivienna @MaxPerutzLabs
I am so honored to receive the 2023 Impact Award! 💥 The awarded topics range from art and communication to politics and climate protection 👉 tinyurl.com/5bxhhjct What a privilege to have our stem cell & organoid research among such important and timely subjects! 👩🔬 🧠 🧫
We also just received news that Catarina was awarded the 2023 Impact Award for her research on using #organoid technologies to understand human brain development. Congratulations!
The repression of gene #transcription is controlled by special TFs that recruit co-repressors. 🧬 In @ScienceMagazine, @jacobsjelle1, @AlexanderStark8 & co now show: most enhancers can be repressed by only a subset of co-repressors! 👉🏽imp.ac.at/news/article/o…
👏🏾 Congrats to @AlexanderStark8 for being awarded a Stand-Alone Project grant from @FWF_at! This grant will support research conducted by #PhD students @LorenaHofbauer & Sebastian Kleinfercher, focusing on genomic #silencers. ⤵️ imp.ac.at/news/article/a… @stark_lab
How does the HP1 variant Rhino achieve its specific localization that is so important for the #piRNA pathway?🪰 The final version of our answer is out @eLife showing that the ZnF protein Kipferl balances the competition of different selfish elements for 🦏 doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…
