Excited to finally be able to share some new work on the evolution of zinc finger genes!
https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.11.29.518450v1
Zinc finger genes are a deeply conserved family of eukaryotic transcription factors. But in animals, the copy number of these genes has exploded 💥 (1/10)

Yayyy! Thanks @BrancoLab and @deMendoza_Alex for accepting our contribution: a protocol aim at high school teachers to experimentally validate #transposon insertions #MelanogasterCTF #CitizenFlyLab https://twitter.com/BrancoLab/status/1598331922102493184
Big big big thanks to @guilbourque for the sustained support the last two year! Such a great group full of talents! 🎉👏✌️
Bonus Chapter: the ultimate guide to using #dnaPipeTE!!! https://link.springer.com/protocol/10.1007/978-1-0716-2883-6_2 4/4
Next, the amazing @groza_cristian describe a #pangenome approach to detect and genotype #Transposon insertions, which is the foundation of our new tool GraffiTE! 3/4 https://link.springer.com/protocol/10.1007/978-1-0716-2883-6_5 https://github.com/cgroza/GraffiTE
With the brilliant @xunchen85, we describe the use of short-reads methods to detect #Transposon insertion polymorphism against a reference genome https://link.springer.com/protocol/10.1007/978-1-0716-2883-6_4 2/4
Big thanks to @BrancoLab and @deMendoza_Alex for putting this amazing resource together 🎉! And kudos to @xunchen85 and @groza_cristian for their amazing contributions... 👇 1/4

Enjoyed (well... maybe not the nitty gritty editing) putting together this TE methods book with @deMendoza_Alex. If you're a #TE aficionado or wanna-be, look out for its release in the New Year. https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-1-0716-28…

Happy to present our #REWIRE project, a collab with @TreepVieira & Christine Gaspin, with @Cosmicomica @MGFerrarini , Agnès Vallier, Severine Balmand and Claire Hoede! https://twitter.com/INRAE_DPT_SPE/status/1595735456410378241
@PhilippBayer I share the feeling!
@moaparty thank you! The service is amazing ✌️
#Mastodon features that #Twitter doesn’t have:
* Temporary muting (e.g. for a day)
* Self-verified URLs in the profile
* Hiding spoilers etc. via content warnings
* URLs must start with protocols (fewer false positives, e.g. in code).
* Everyone can edit posts (in v4+).
* No ads (which doesn’t come for free = donate if you can afford it)
More obscure: I like that you can search for post URLs to “transfer” them between accounts.
