1/2 The presence of extraembryonic cells in the developing gut has long puzzled scientists. @BatkiJulia (l) and @hetzel_s (r) (#Meissner lab) now gained new insight into the fate and molecular characteristics of these cells. @NatureCellBio Read more: https://t.co/YOHN9v4VxK
🧬 The placenta's DNA is strange: its methylation patterns are scattered throughout. This is the result of two enzymes that normally work in their respective pens but compete in the placenta, as @hetzel_s@RahaWeigert show in @NatureCellBio. #Meissner Lab https://t.co/r2XtugBGmo
☕️NEW ONLINE: Meissner, Smith & co show that an antagonistic relationship between DNA methyltransferase and Polycomb activity is globally responsible for the maintenance of intermediate methylation levels observed in trophoblast stem cells.

Excited to share our work discovering a dynamic antagonism between #DNMT3B and #Polycomb that maintains the placental epigenome. Check out @RahaWeigert thread for more details 👇👇 @MPI_MolGen
Ever wondered how the peculiar placental epigenome is regulated? We discovered a dynamic DNMT3B/Polycomb-antagonism that maintains it! Beyond thrilled to share my PhD work together with @hetzel_s published @NatureCellBiology. @MPI_MolGen#MeissnerLab (1/9) https://t.co/x5vjLyQUHe
🚨!!!Preprint Alert!!!🚨 I am super-delighted to share our work co-led with @adrianobolondi describing the discovery and characterization of a novel lncRNA, LNCSOX17, a key regulator of human definitive endoderm. #Meissner Lab @MPI_MolGen. A🧵1/11 https://t.co/RbO2tRJLID
Our review on new opportunities offered by single-cell technologies for investigating epigenetic regulation during mouse development is out today in @sciencedirect! A team effort with @helenekretzmer and Alex Meissner @MPI_MolGen. A short thread🧵

This work would not have been possible without the work and dedication of my wonderful colleagues and collaboration partners @AL_Mattei, @helenekretzmer, @CMullighan, Alex Meissner and many others!
Excited to share my PhD work now out @NatureCancer! We explored the methylome of acute lymphoblastic #leukemia and found that unlike the classic global hypomethylation found in tumors, ALL exhibits strikingly high genome-wide #DNAmethylation levels. https://t.co/WZDfFrOG3e
We also show that CpG island hypermethylation levels in T-ALL patients span a wide range and highlight a role of #TET2 and #DNMT3B in shaping this landscape. #CancerEpigenetics
Outstanding work by my brilliant colleagues who spent many months collecting and summarizing the key pieces to take us on a journey through the history of DNA methylation research. A must-read for anyone in the field and beyond.
What does DNA methylation do again? Our answer in 32 short pages. Excited to finally get to share a true labor of love Nina Bailly and I worked on together throughout the pandemic, a swan song to my PhD and time in Germany. https://t.co/2PrbMim23e
@anshulkundaje Our lab has looked at the KOs of different epigenetic regulators with scRNAseq wrt transcriptional changes, changes in cell state proportions and developmental delay https://t.co/mdH14eClpK
🎉 SeqAn 3.1.0 released 🎉
We are happy and proud to announce a new release of the modern #CPP library for sequence analysis. Find out more about it at https://t.co/r6Bak4KlbR or check it out right away https://t.co/pUSovbkaI8. Many thanks to all contributors and supporters.
Thanks to the team @SeqAnLib for providing such an efficient framework for the development of biological sequence analysis tools with #cplusplus. RLM is available via GitHub: https://t.co/mQIEgsLrAS
Happy to present the first work of my PhD: RLM, a tool that enables efficient computation of read-level #DNAmethylation metrics from bisulfite sequencing data with @PayGiesselmann, @KnutReinert, Alex Meissner and @helenekretzmer

🧬 How does the #methylome of chronic lymphocytic leukemia change over time – from precursor stage to after therapy? It’s remarkably stable, @helenekretzmer found out in her new @BCD_AACR paper: https://t.co/KbziyHIf9H #ASH20
