Our #genomics #bioRxiv preprint with Magdalena Machnicka is out!

Trans-homologous interactions identified in Hi-C data are associated with embryonic development https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.04.25.648339v1

Chromatin contacts between homologous chromosomes are widespread in the fruit fly and also present in other organisms. But what does it mean if trans-homologous (transh) contacts are enriched compared to the cis-homologous (cish) ones?

I'm trying to extract the mitogenome from a whole genome Illumina shotgun sequence dataset (150 bp reads). The organism has the entire mitogenome inserted in the nuclear genome (a NUMT). How can I be sure my mitogenome assembly is the real mitogenome?

Excited to announce our article, "EvoWeaver: large-scale prediction of gene functional associations from coevolutionary signals" was just published in Nature Communications!

We demonstrate that it's possible to infer how genes work together using only sequencing data by leveraging correlated signals of evolution. Check it out at the link below!
