Human Smc5/6 recognises transcription-generated positive DNA supercoils

Human Smc5/6 recognises transcription-generated positive DNA supercoils

Beyond its essential roles in ensuring faithful chromosome segregation and genomic stability, the human Smc5/6 complex acts as an antiviral factor. It binds to and impedes the transcription of...

Very happy to see our work on DNA origami force-sensor for microtubule-generated forces published doi.org/10.1242/jcs.260154 Being so happy, I somehow managed to delete the original tweet instead of quoting it 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Replying to @microtubule_guy
We validated the spring performance by comparing the stalling forces generated by yeast dynein motor domains walking along stable microtubules and either extending the DNA spring, or displacing a bead from an optical trap 3/6

This giant bacterium is the largest one found yet

On average, Thiomargarita magnifica measures 1 centimeter long and maxes out at 2 centimeters. It is 50 times larger than other giant bacteria.
