Thrilled to share our new (unredacted) report in @sciencemagazine with evidence for cooperation influencing outcomes! Led by Caleb Bashor & @nikitpatels, we built cooperative TF assemblies and showed how they enable complex signal processing in cells: science.sciencemag.org/conte…

Excited to share new work from @ClarissaScholes! She measured how 2 Kr shadow enhancers combine their output using live imaging. Take home: 1 + 1 sometimes is a lot less than 2, sometimes only a little bit less. Output is not a simple function of enhancer expression level.

Excited that our review on the MZT in Drosophila is now online at Open Biology (royalsocietypublishing.org/d…). Great work from recent PhD grad Danielle Hamm.

more evidence for the functional role of Zelda hubs in mediating transcription factor binding to their targets. Really exciting to see this line of research blossoming! biorxiv.org/content/early/20…

Happy to finally share this (long in progress) work with the world. Lots of hard work by @gizemkly (especially), @JLachowiec, and Ulises Rosas. Redundant and cryptic enhancer activities of the Drosophila yellow gene biorxiv.org/content/early/20…

It's on bioarxiv finally! In this paper we dissect a GRN into dynamical modules and use them to study the networks evovability. Give us your feedback too! It hasn't been submitted yet. @yoginho biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor…

Interesting study from @DePaceLab biorxiv.org/content/early/20… Revisiting a 1989 classic from Dreiver et al nature.com/articles/340363a0 by applying quant analysis to test whether gene expression pattern controlled by Bicoid binding affinity turns out it's a little more complicated
"Our results emphasize that the bacterial view of transcription regulation, where pairwise interactions between regulatory proteins dominate, must be reexamined in animals..."
Excited to share new work from @JPbiophysics & the Gunawardena lab. Mutants, knockdowns & modeling to understand how a classic Drosophila enhancer drives sharp gene expression. Spoiler : its not simple cooperative DNA binding by TFs. biorxiv.org/content/early/20…

Excited to share this work from @ClarissaScholes - lots left to learn about how shadow enhancers collaborate to control gene expression. She took an important first step - coming to grips with the computation.
