Our new preprint is out＠bioRxiv: https://t.co/sUqL7fcfMe
@MasaAShimazoe et al. reveal that linker histone H1 acts as a liquid-like "glue" to organize chromatin in living cells. 🎉 Fantastic collab with @rcollepardo, Charlie Phillips, @janhuemar and others—huge thanks! 🙌 1/2

Top 5 advances in medicine this week (🧵)

1. Vitamin C modifies the amino acid, lysine, to form VitCyl-lysine

This is a novel post-translational modification: it promotes immunity and (in mice!) boosts anti-PD1 immunotherapy to kill cancer

Whether vitamin C can also boost immunotherapy in humans isn't yet clear, but trials are ongoing

Marjorie Courtenay-Latimer was born #OTD in 1907.
In 1938 she found a very unusual fish in a market - a coelacanth, thought to be #extinct. It was later named after her with the generic name of Latimeria.

We are witnessing a very sad moment in American history.

The President of the United States is aligning himself with the dictator of Russia, Vladimir Putin, to undermine the independence of Ukraine and its democracy.

Here are my thoughts:

Centromere evolution isn't a sudden switch!

Our study shows centromere transitions are a step-by-step process driven by a combination of drift and selection. Discover how the kinetochore interface shapes this gradual change in our new preprint https://t.co/NAVeR8Owtd  🧵(1/8)
