We find cool new long-range DNA-DNA interactions that coordinate var genes and stage-specific genes. And who’s always there? ApiAP2 factors and MORC! Many thanks to @singh-parul.bsky.social @ju-couble.bsky.social @sebbaumgarten.bsky.social @agencerecherche.bsky.social @erc.europa.eu @pasteur.fr

June was a productive month: brought two things into this world, both of which were great collaborative efforts and about nine months in the making. Check out where we map P. falciparum genome architecture at high resolution with Micro-C here:

Malaria parasites are an extreme example of ribosome heterogeneity. But how do they control which ribosomal RNA to express when?

Check out this mountain of work led by @ju-couble.bsky.social with @tizvignolini.bsky.social @jessmbryant.bsky.social
