Damage-induced i-loops generate eccDNA from repetitive elements

Zanella et al. reveal a mechanism of eccDNA formation. Nicks or gaps at repetitive sequences promote i-loop formation that can be excised as eccDNA. Given the abundance of repetitive elements and the ...

Thrilled to see our work featured on the cover of Molecular Cell. The image:electron micrograph of an i-loop, the DNA structure we propose as a source of eccDNA formation. We've spent years thinking about these structures. There's something quietly surreal about seeing one on the cover of a journal

Thrilled to see our work featured on the cover of Molecular Cell. The image is an electron micrograph of an i-loop, the DNA structure we propose as a source of eccDNA formation. Almost like catching circular DNA formation in the act. #eccDNA #CancerResearch #GenomeInstability #DNARepair

How do cancer-associated eccDNAs arise? Our work shows that single-strand DNA damage in repetitive sequences can trigger i-loop formation and eccDNA generation. What started at telomeres may reflect a much broader principle across the genome and help explain how ecDNA may emerge in cancer. 1/2

Meme featuring characters from the animated series Bob's Burgers.
Scene: Louise Belcher and her siblings are discussing an alternative to "egging" someone. Louise, "Is there a vegan alternative for egging a fascist?", Gene, "I only found a brick." Louise, "Perfect."

Funny 4 panel comic by War and Peas about Ivan Pavlov. 1. Panel: A housekeeper rings a bell and calls out: "Mr. Pavlov, dinner is ready!" 2. Ivan Pavlov jumps out of a door and shouts: "That's great, Irma!" 3. He is sitting at a bare table and realizes: "Wait, Irma, there's no food." 4. Panel: Irma pulls her own head off her shoulders and you can see that it was just a mask. Underneath is a dog that screams angrily: "How the tables have turned, Mr. Pavlov!" Other aggressive dogs surround him. It's their revenge at last.

It's hard to focus on Israel's airstrikes in Lebanon due to Israel's invasion of Syria, which is hard to focus on due to Israel's atrocities in the West Bank, which are hard to focus on due to Israel's genocide in Gaza, which is hard to focus on due to Israel's war on Iran.

I'm completely stunned by how fascinating this is. I've know for a while the beauty and intricacies of the mechanisms in action, but to be able to visualize them in such a way it's incredible. Kudos to @drewberry.bsky.social !

ReVenge

4-panel comic by War and Peas.
Panel 1: A group of cows gathers in what looks like a secret meeting room. A brown cow, standing at the head of the group, speaks: "It is once again time to discuss how to get rid of the human scum." Another cow asks, "Any ideas?"
Panel 2: One cow replies, "We could fart."
Panel 3: The cows collectively consider the plan, looking at a diagram showing a fart cloud eliminating humans.
Panel 4: A newspaper headline reads "METHANE DESTROYING ENVIRONMENT!" accompanied by an image of coffee and a plate of bacon, hinting at the cows' revenge.

Nobody came to save the Ukrainians, Palestinians, Syrians, or Burmese to name a few. Millions are facing hard fascism, authoritarianism, atrocities beyond comprehension. They haven't surrendered, we don't have an excuse to give up or beg to be saved, it's our duty to stand up for each other.

You should try the Fediverse ( e.g. Mastodon), everything is different there ;)
