3/3 Writers/readers/erasers co-accumulate at Active loci, and HDAC inhibition reshapes burst dwell times, suggesting a dynamic acetylation balance tunes minute-scale state transitions. Thanks to collaborators at Kyushu Univ. (Ohkawa lab, Harada lab) and Tokyo Institute of Science (Kimura lab).

2/3 Using single-gene live-cell imaging at endogenous loci (STREAMING tag) with mintbody/ChromID probes, we find activating marks (H3K27ac/H3K4me3) rise during Active bursts and fall during Inactive periods; H3K27me3 shows the opposite.
