The fact of the matter is that Black, Indigenous, Latino/a, LGBTQ+, and other minorities groups in the US have worse health than white, cis, heterosexual people. Not studying the problem won't make the difference go away. Studying how and why it happens and making policies based on facts will. /fin

Conservatives have pushed hard the idea that there is science corruption-- because they want to destroy science and universities. There are some problems with some scientists. But the science system is still great. Letting conservative elites tear it down to enrich billionaires wld be a disaster.

If you have been affected by the fires in LA, or are concerned about your ability to keep precious Drosophila strains going during the latest funding crisis, we will host your strains as a backup. Please email me. Please amplify. If you are also able to host fly strains, add your name as well.

Pericentromeric #heterochromatin clusters into chromocenters. @skrutlnize.bsky.social &co use quantitative mass spec to characterize the chromocenter proteome in multiple tissues, identifying a link between satellite DNA-binding proteins & #transposon repression🧪 @plosbiology.org plos.io/4akuNAi

Loss of D1 during embryogenesis triggers transposon expression in adult ovaries. Top: Ovaries from the indicated genotypes (D1 and aubergine mutants and heterozygotes, F1 and F2) were stained with Vasa (green) and DAPI (magenta). Bottom: RNA in situ hybridization against Copia (green) and total polyadenylated mRNA (blue) was performed in ovaries of the indicated genotypes that were also stained for DAPI (magenta). Yellow and black arrowheads indicate undifferentiated germ cells in the aubergine mutant germarium.

Also super happy to share our #Meiosis preprint! We show that satDNA mismatches disrupt meiotic pairing, especially at centromeres, leading to oocyte death. This highlights the critical role of satDNA in maintaining meiotic stability 👉 researchsquare.com/article/rs-5538025/v1 ! Jagannathanlab.com
