(7/8) In sum, ACCESS-ATAC improves the resolution of ATAC-seq and opens up a new ability to analyze single-allele TF co-occupancy. Want to try it? Reach out-- we have built flexible experimental and computational workflows and would be happy to share reagents and expertise!

(8/8) Plus we’re not the only ones who have realized the power of Ddd enzymes in chromatin analysis: check out the work from @brian_b_liau and colleagues combining DddA and CRISPR to dissect how sequence impacts chromatin state: biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor…

Excited to share our work introducing BEAN🫘, a pipeline that greatly improves the power of CRISPR base editing screens🚀! BEAN utilizes surrogate per-gRNA editing outcomes, identifying coding & noncoding variants impacting LDL cholesterol uptake. 📰medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/… (1/)

I’m excited to share REGatta, a project by @James_D_Fife from @CassaLabBWH which uses biobank data to estimate the clinical risk of rare variants within regions of established disease genes – Open access link @AJHGNews authors.elsevier.com/a/1h8Og… 🧵

We are excited to apply our pipeline to get to the bottom of the genetics of lipids and cardiovascular disease risk, unraveling new cellular mechanisms beyond LDL uptake and pinpointing genetic variant effects using more precise CRISPR tools. 15/16
