Our paper on long-read single-cell WGS is finally out!!🥳 We demonstrate that SNVs, SVs and TRs can be analyzed in individual human T-cells and present results of de novo assembly. Huge thanks to @joanna_hard and everyone involved! @scilifelab @ngisweden nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

A study published in Nature reports that melanoma cells that pass through the lymph nodes pick up a protective coating, allowing them to survive high levels of oxidative stress in the blood and go on to form distant tumours. go.nature.com/3hfbE6F

Getting antibodies for ChIP-seq for some species can be a real challenge! We solved the problem by using tissue-specific biotinylation: no antibodies, no sorting, low cell numbers! Our protocol for #zebrafish and #chicken is now available @STARProtocols. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Wow - ENCODE Phase 3 is here! Time to sit down with the issue and plan the new phase of comparative genetics & genomics!
Great for news for the community! German shepherd (Mischka) long-read dog assembly released by UCSC.
We have updated assemblies for both dog (canFam4) and bonobo (panPan3). These assemblies were made available in March 2020 by the @UU_University (canFam4) and May 2020 by the Eichler Lab @UW (panPan3). See our news for more: bit.ly/GB071020

Excited to share a new annotated canine genome for the genomics community! Congratulations to the Uppsala team! #genomics #dogsofinstagram #uppsalauniversity
