On this #ThrowbackThursday we go back to our Episode #49 there we caught up with Sandra Hake from the Justus Liebig University in Giessen to talk about her work on variants of core #histones and their role as modulators of #chromatin structure and function. #womeninstem #epigenetics

Amazing stuff - makes me immediately curious about genomic evolution of these microbes, and whether there's an observable difference in how chromosome - plasmid gene jumps happen in those situations.

How do #yeast adapt to #chromatinization with human #histones and subsequent #aneuploidy?

Jeff Boeke, @maxhaase et al from NYU Langone find #ploidy stabilization by DASH/Dam1 complex mutants that weaken #kinetochore-#microtubule attachment strength
