Ever wondered how transcription choreographs histone modifications? Our work reveals the basis of co-transcriptional H3K36me3 by SETD2. We visualize how a histone writer coordinates with the transcription machinery! This is the magnus opus of @MarkertJon tinyurl.com/setd2

First paper of our lab today @Nature by Nussi!
We provide a real-time movie on how #transcription and #translation cooperate using multi-color #single-molecule FM: we find long-range #ribosome-#polymerase communication mediated by #RNA looping! @embl

Our new findings on how the ribosome couples with the RNA polymerase are summarized in a movie highlighting the dynamics of the process🎞️🎥
Thanks to Clemens Bretscher for the great animations! - behance.net/cbretscher
