#LatestStudy by Faseela from @sabarinathan.bsky.social
@dimplenotani.bsky.social's lab shows CTCF/cohesin co-binding during replication triggers DNA damage; in DNA damage response(DDR)-defective tumors this may drive genomic instability.

Does a protein's fate depend on whereโand with whatโit's tagged?
New @pubs.acs.org study from TIFR's Dept of Chem Sci shows that site-specific ubiquitination alters protein stability via structural changes & SUMO1 behaves differently at the same site.

The Day 1 talk sessions at #DAEC2026 closed with Prof. Ujjwal Sen (HRI & HBNI) walked us through the deep structure underpinning #QuantumTechnologies โ from the fundamentals of entanglement to the architecture of quantum simulators, networks, sensors, and computers.
Next, Prof. R. Vijayaraghavan (TIFR, Mumbai) explored the frontiers of quantum computing with superconducting circuitsโfrom transmon qubits and quantum gates to cutting-edge architectures for dense connectivity and quantum error correction.
