Amazing work!!! #eccDNA

Incredible story 🌟 Truncated isoform of IFN receptor by Exonized Alu that highly expressed in many cell types: IFN receptor decoy. Can’t be more excited to learn about it!

coming from Jonathan, this must be a wonderful resource for understanding all the details on how population genetics actually works

Join us for the #TransposonFest 🔥🎃

We all take repeat annotation in the human genome for granted but are we sure it's correct? In a 🚨new paper 🚨 from the lab, Xun Chen shows that up to 30% of primate ERVs/LTRs instances are mis-annotated.

🧬 Amazing follow-up on the Arc gene story! Knowing Arc is derived from a retrotransposon, retaining the gag function to create VLPs for intercellular communication. But what regulates the capsid release? And the role of Arc extracellular vesicle? Check it out #ArcGene #VLP #GAG

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. nature.com/articles/s4158… Bo Xia

Human telomerase threatens genome integrity by adding telomeres to broken chromosomes and is held in check by ATR kinase signaling. Learn more in Science ⬇️ 📄: scim.ag/69F #SciencePerspective: scim.ag/69G

Welcome 2rd year grad student Cedric 😂😂😂😂—-so funny to see different scenarios of my PI acting out: from humiliation to confidence.

Pity that I didn’t join #ICTE2024 this time, but my PIs from graduate MANGO LAB and postdoc Cedric🧬➰🧬Feschotte met there! 🎉

Amazing lab retreat 😉. I LOVE the TE community and everyone I've met through #CSHLTE24. Thanks to everyone for all the knowledge/brainstorming/collaborative advice ❤️ 🥰

I’m excited to share our latest study led by Giulia Pasquesi out today in Cell Press , uncovering a new way transposons have been repurposed for human interferon signaling! Read on for a thread on cryptic splice variants, decoy receptors, and viruses (1/N) 👇🧵
