Introducing CHARM: a new epigenome editor to methylate DNA at the promoter of a targeted gene. Our lab's collaboration with Jonathan Weissman's Lab's Edwin Neumann & Tessa Bertozzi shows deep silencing of brain PrP Paper: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Blog: cureffi.org/2024/06/27/int…



Check out our latest paper showing that HLTF removes Cas9 from DNA, explaining phenotypic differences when using the two Cas9 nickase variants. Important for gene editing! Thanks to Giordano Reginato & Rosaria and @MartinJinek Taekjip Ha andre nussenzweig lab nature.com/articles/s4146…

Today in Nature Biotechnology, we describe first-gen click editors (CEs), which couple the advantageous properties of DNA-dependent DNA polymerases and HUH endonucleases with RNA-programmable nickases for precise and versatile human genome editing. 🧬 nature.com/articles/s4158…

Thrilled to see our click editing paper out today in Nature Biotechnology! 🚀 Click Editors (CEs) are a new class of genome writers which combine DNA polymerases and HUH endonucleases with RNA-programmable nickases for precise edits without DNA DSBs🧬✨ nature.com/articles/s4158…




No one can take apart a complex dataset like Thomas Norman!!!

Excited to share our preprint of my PhD work in the Jasin lab Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center! We find that CRISPR Cas9-induced DNA double strand breaks, even at a single locus, cause large-scale loss of heterozygosity. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…


New paper with Goran Kokic and Jesper Svejstrup Laboratory in Cell Press! We show that STK19 facilitates the clearance of lesion-stalled RNAPII during transcription-coupled DNA repair. Great teamwork by diana van den heuvel , Marta Rodríguez-Martínez, Paula van der Meer! cell.com/cell/fulltext/… 1/6


Thrilled to see our work out in Nature Methods today! We applied prime editing to multiplexed dropout screens and benchmarked the tool’s ability to induce phenotypes when installing premature stop codons in essential genes.



We enjoyed a great round of talks by Alberto Ciccia (Columbia), Lee Zou (Duke), Dr. Agnel Sfeir (MSKCC), and Ranjit Bindra,MD/PhD (Yale), plus our trainees Arindam Datta and Azrin Jamalruddin at yesterday’s PCGI Mini Symposium on "Targeting the Damage Response"
