We’re excited to share that, after receiving many requests each year from the research community for Oligopaint DNA & RNA FISH probes, we’re piloting a service to design & prepare probes for labs. Please share with colleagues who may benefit! ericjoycelab.com/oligopaint-f...

Oligopaint Probe Requests
In an effort to make Oligopaint FISH probes more broadly available to the research community, we offer DNA and RNA FISH probe design, synthesis, and generation. By dedicating a full-time staff memb…

New preprint with @gfudenberg.bsky.social We find the rate of cohesin loop extrusion in cells is set by NIPBL dosage and tunes many aspects of chromosome folding. This provides a molecular basis for NIPBL haploinsufficiency in humans. 🧵👇 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

NIPBL dosage shapes genome folding by tuning the rate of cohesin loop extrusion
Cohesin loop extrusion is a major driver of chromosome folding, but how its dynamics are controlled to shape the genome remains elusive. Here we disentangle the contributions of the cohesin cofactors ...

Mechanistic and Epigenetic Partitioning of Lamina-Associated Chromatin Revealed by a Genome-Wide Imaging Screen
The nuclear periphery is a key site for heterochromatin organization in eukaryotic cells, where lamina-associated domains (LADs) promote transcriptional repression and genome stability. Despite their ...

Chemically induced proximity reveals a Piezo-dependent meiotic checkpoint at the oocyte nuclear envelope
Sexual reproduction relies on robust quality control during meiosis. Assembly of the synaptonemal complex between homologous chromosomes (synapsis) regulates meiotic recombination and is crucial for a...

Very happy to see this collaborative work with Eric Joyce and Doug Epstein labs out in press. Happy to have contributed our small part. Congratulations to Jailynn, who recently joined my lab as a postdoc, and all co-authors on this tour de force!

Our study with @ericjoyce.bsky.social led by Jailynn Harke is out. We show that allelic configurations at the Shh locus are predominately compact in the mouse forebrain, and that long range E-P interactions rely on transcription dependent and independent mechanisms. www.cell.com/molecular-ce...

Multiple allelic configurations govern long-range Shh enhancer-promoter communication in the embryonic forebrain
Harke et al. use sequential DNA-FISH to achieve single-allele resolution of the Sonic hedgehog (Shh) regulatory domain in the mouse forebrain. They show that multiple allelic configurations occur inde...
