Our recent paper is online! Great work from @JeronimoCelia and fantastic collaborations on math modeling with Andrew Angel in Jane Melor's lab and on SMT with Jee Min Kim and Vu Nguyen in Carl Wu's lab. Also, nice help from lab members Christian Poitras and @Lambelie.
Online Now: FACT is recruited to the +1 nucleosome of transcribed genes and spreads in a Chd1-dependent manner dlvr.it/S5RVh2
Ever wondered what would happen if the TFIIH kinase module was separated from the TFIIH core?
Check out this new preprint from the Buratowski lab with contributions from @JeronimoCelia from our lab.

Our review on transcription-coupled nucleosome assembly is out.
Available now - the Review "Transcription-coupled nucleosome assembly" from @FRobertLab and @JeronimoCelia.

Fantastic talk from @AdelmanLab today at @ircm_mtl about the role of swi/snf at promoters and enhancers in mammalian cells.
Very Nice work from our colleague @MMalleshaiah

Congrats JF!
It's finally here! Check out our paper in the latest issue of Science. Congrats @hosseindn and Alexis. Great collaboration with Jacob lab at Yale and our colleagues at @uOttawaBMI: @mamunoz1cl @EmilioIAlarcon1. Thanks to all other authors.science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…
If you are in the Montreal area, do not hesitate to drop your plasmids in our box.
Announcing our first Canadian dropbox 🇨🇦, at the Institut de Recherches Cliniques de Montréal @ircm_mtl, in the corridor outside room 2015 (2nd floor). External users can give samples to the security agent at the entrance of 3688 St-Urbain. Shipping Wednesdays!
Nice review on the Mediator kinase module by @TaatjesL
Check out our @TrendsBiochem review on the Mediator kinase module, highlighting work from @CramerLab, Espinosa, Firestein, @RobKlose, Kovarik, @FRobertLab, Serrano, Struhl, Tsai, and more. Open access: bit.ly/3oZtGzA
Our Institute is recruiting a PI! The IRCM (@ircm) is a great place to do research. Fantastic core facilities, access to students from @UMontreal and @mcgillu, research ranging from fundamental to clinical.... #generegulation #transcription #geneexpression #chromatin
We have a PI position open @ircm_mtl ! Excited to have new colleagues! The IRCM is a great environment with fantastic core facilities and an ideal place to start a lab! Come join us!

Congrats John 👍
Our new paper on PARP1/2 and HPF1 is out @Naturecommunications!
HPF1 dynamically controls the PARP1/2 balance between initiating and elongating ADP-ribose modifications disq.us/t/42yjt6d
Nice work from @M_Saleh90 and @gabezentner. Glad that @JeronimoCelia and I could contribute a little bit.
Saleh et al study the role of #yeast Mediator coactivator complex subunit 16
They show that Med16 removal downregulates #genes dependent on the SAGA complex and upregulates genes dependent on the TFIID complex
