Stress makes memories...epigenetically speaking!! A histone ubiquitylation “stress switch” lets environmental signals lock into heterochromatin, passing on epigenetic memories long after the stress is gone. Fantastic story! Congrats @grewalsh.bsky.social‬ @bharat-bhatt.bsky.social and team! 👏👏

AGO2 slicing of a domesticated retrotransposon is necessary for normal vasculature development
Argonaute (AGO) mediated slicing of RNA, also known as RNAi, is a highly conserved phenomenon that is evolutionarily linked to the repression of transposons and other repeats. Although RNAi is no long...
