New research article on how chromatin marking governs DNA damage segregation in mitosis
In this paper, we uncover a damaged chromatin marking mechanism that drives the non-random segregation of UV damage through mitosis with potential consequences on daughter cell fate. Thus, we reveal that chromatin alterations impinge on genome stability not only by...

New review: X chromosome regulation and female functional specificities: Are two Xs better than one?
What if the presence of two X chromosomes confers functional specificities on female cells and contributes to the different susceptibilites of men and women to certain diseases? One of the X chromosomes is randomly silenced in each female cell from the embryonic...
New review: Genetic diseases of epigenetic machinery
The development of sequencing technologies and their increased accessibility in clinical services and genetic laboratories have considerably accelerated the identification of genetic variants associated with rare diseases. Among these, Mendelian disorders of the...
