Hey everyone!
Check out the new DNA Zoo website with 50 new mammalian chromosome-length genome assemblies! Data freely available. Shoutout to @thednazoo team and @theaidenlab! Go to 'Methods' for 3D-DNA and Juicebox Assembly Tools links.

Dear friends,
We are thrilled to announce the launch of the DNA Zoo website dedicated to sharing chromosome-length genomics resources. To start, we are releasing chromosome-length genome assemblies for 50 mammalian species!
Welcome to the DNA Zoo!

Extra, extra, ratical discovery: thought extinct for 11 million years, the Laotian rock rat emerges as a living fossil hiding in the karsts of Southeast Asia. Adding a chromosome-length genome assembly to the story @thednazoo:

The last thylacine died on Sep 7 1936. 60y later National Threatened Species Day was established to spotlight Aussi species facing peril. In observation, we
share assembly for Kyloring, parrot prioritized for recovery. W @PerthZoo @uwanews @Dr_Parwinder:

Excited to share our new paper @NatureComms.

Single-nucleosome imaging reveals that condensins act as molecular crosslinkers, locally constraining nucleosomes to organize mitotic chromosomes. Nucleosome-nucleosome interactions constrain whole chromosomes.

[NEW] A veritable stampede of researchers banded together to shoulder a truly mammoth task that takes #epigenetics pre-historic!
Using PaleoHi-C, they've described the 3D genome architecture of preserved cells from 52,000-year-old animal skin! 🦣bit.ly/3WwlIiJ

Woolly mammoth DNA in an exceptional state of preservation has been obtained from 52,000-year-old freeze-dried 'jerky'. It’s even possible to reconstruct the 3D structure of the chromosomes, which may help efforts to resurrect the species. newscientist.com/article/243…
