☕Neville, Ferguson et al. show that non-canonical Polycomb repressive complex 1.1-mediated gene silencing is antagonized by DOT1L and is required for the therapeutic efficacy of Menin and DOT1L inhibitors in mixed-lineage leukaemia.

happy i could be a part of this paper from the Gilan lab out now. Along with many other things, it provides strong evidence of chromatin memory for gene activation, and suggests that DOT1L is the missing link balancing the fast and slow arms of the MLL/Polycomb axis

Fantastic day for the Korb lab with Marissa defending her thesis on DOT1L function in the brain and passing the torch to Annastelle who passed her qualifying exam on testing mechanisms of DOT1L regulation of chromatin in neurons! May 20th shall henceforth be known as National DOT1L Day.

An epigenetic modulators affect timing of human neuronal maturation. Transient inhibition of EZH2, EHMT1 and EHMT2 or DOT1L, at progenitor stage primes newly born neurons to rapidly acquire mature properties upon differentiation.

An epigenetic barrier sets the timing of human neuronal maturation - Nature
The slow maturation of human neurons is regulated by epigenetic modification in nascent neurons, mediated by EZH2, EHMT1, EHMT2 and DOT1L.

🚨Paper Alert!

👏 Big congrats to @marcelwerner.bsky.social, ManuelTrauner & rest of @hamperllab.bsky.social team for this brilliant work!

🧬 Check out their amazing research diving into how #TRCs and DOT1L impact genome stability.

A must-read 🧵 for #transcription, #replication & #epigenetics fans👇!

ICR researchers have found that the drug could work better when combined with another targeted drug, a DOT1L inhibitor.

A DOT1L inhibitor drug is already in clinical trials, so the team hope the combination could benefit blood cancer patients sooner.

Great to see this out!
Following on from our earlier work revealing DOT1L was essential for humoral responses, here we determine the importance of H3K79me2 at multiple stages of B cell biology
