A high-throughput enhancer-enhancer-promoter reporter assay indicates that pairs of enhancers generally activate promoters in a near-additive manner, and that promoters transform their collective effect non-linearly.

Introducing the optorepressilator, a synthetic genetic oscillator that can be synchronized, entrained, and detuned by green light to precisely control periodic gene expression in single cells or entire bacterial populations.
A multi-disciplined approach uncovered microRNA-199a/b-5p as important regulators of chondrogenesis, which negatively regulate mRNAs such as FZD6, ITGA3, and CAV1 for protective purposes during chondrogenesis.
Nanopore sequencing effectively resolves key challenges in bacterial small variant detection, providing a more accurate alternative to traditional sequencing methods.
