    RT @davidrliu: Today in @Science_Magazine we report the laboratory evolution of compact degrons that enable targeted protein degradation triggered by an otherwise-inert small molecule, a multidisciplinary study that integrates organic chemistry, molecular glues, protein evolution, genome editing, and structural biology.

    RT @Eric_Betzig: #FluorescenceFriday #Science #neuroscience Dendritic branches (green) in the mouse brain, studded with spines ("lollipops"), and myelin sheaths (pink tubes) that surround axons. Contacts between axons and dendrites called synapses facilitate communication between neurons. There are ~100 trillion synapses in the human brain, so collectively humanity has the same order of synapses as the 10^24 stars estimated in the observable universe. As seen by lattice light sheet expansion microscopy.

    RT @ItaiYanai: How did we lose our tail? A simple question.. but it wasn't really asked before! We discovered a plausible scenario for the genetic mechanism that led to tail loss. Amazing that such a big change may have been caused by such a small genetic event. @BoXia7

    RT @Anders_S_Hansen: (1/n) Our preprint by @JinHarveyYang @hugoresearch is now out in @NatureComms at When a Double-Stand Break (DSB) occurs, how are the two DSB ends brought back together for repair (synapsis)? We suggest a role for loop extrusion!

    (1/n) New preprint by @JinHarveyYang @hugoresearch Q: after a DNA Double-Strand Break (DSB), how are the DSB ends brought back together (synapsis)? Proposal: loop extrusion may 1) prevent DSB ends from diffusing apart and 2) bring them back together.
