Our latest work describing DDIAS as a new component of the TOPBP1-CIP2A pathway in mitosis and its requirement for brain development is now published. Fantastic collaboration with @fenaochs.bsky.social, @profstewartlab.bsky.social, Lars Allan Larsen, @tcr-miller.bsky.social, Zafar Iqbal & others

Small contribution to the eternal match happening inside every cell: in the red corner, replication. In the blue corner, transcription. Both convinced they own the genome. Another amazing collaboration with @hamperllab.bsky.social and @luijsterburglab.bsky.social lnkd.in/ey9tH7YF

Dear Colleagues, Delighted to share that our first lab paper is now published in Nature.!!! 😊😊😊 We identify a previously concealed “safety limit” in DNA replication program: cells intrinsically rate-limit PCNA via PAF15, shaping strand-specific and global replication dynamics. 👉 rdcu.be/e1bBt

rdcu.be

PAF15–PCNA exhaustion governs the strand-specific control of DNA replication

Nature - PCNA–PAF15 has a key role in determining replisome dynamics during genome replication and protecting against genome instability.

I'm beyond excited and thrilled to share that my first (co)-first-author research paper has been published in Nature 🎉 If I say Transcription-Replication Conflict, do cilia proteins pop in your head? No? Well, understandable, but you'd be wrong! Intrigued? Then read this paper!
