This. is. NOT. yet "another" gene therapy paper. The patient's name is Michael, he is Terry Pirovolakis's son, and if you google that name and learn what it took to make this happen (watch a talk by Terry) - you'll read this paper in an entirely new light.

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…

Can we recreate the transcriptional states seen in single-cell atlas projects? In our new preprint we try to do this using large-scale Perturb-seq experiments. Along the way we discuss off-target effects of CRISPR epigenetic editors and identify drivers of key fibroblast states.

Chromatin scientists, want to reorganize genomic loci as you wish? Out today in Cell--We made a tool that uses surface tension of engineered condensates to reposition DNA loci across microns of space in living cells in just a few minutes: VECTOR cell.com/cell/abstract/…

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…

Excited that our work on transcription-coupled DNA repair is now published Cell! We recapitulated TC-NER in Xenopus egg extract and identified STK19 as a core repair factor that couples stalled Pol II to TFIIH. 🧬🐸 ➡️ cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

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.
