Announcing the joint IDPSeminars / BPS IDP Subgroup Trainee Symposium Speakers! Join us on Mar 27, 12–2pm CST for 6 exciting talks focused on Intrinsically Disordered Proteins as part of #BiophysicsWeek2025 with the @BiophysicalSoc Sign up now at docs.google.com/forms/d/1L_Kpm…
RNA-binding proteins and glycoRNAs form domains on the cell surface for cell-penetrating peptide entry: Cell cell.com/cell/fulltext/…
Curious how biocondensates localize ions? We found that condensates selectively bind and localize both chaotropic anions and kosmotropic cations. This alters the condensate composition, interface potential and RNA duplex stability inside. By @IrisSmokers biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Congrats to Nick DeCleene on defending his thesis under the guidance of Alison Bertuch @TexasChildrens & @bcmhouston, and for donating stem cells @nmdp_org just a week after graduating! Whether in the lab or donating for a good cause, he is an inspiration❤️#StemCellDonor #PhDLife
m6A sites in the coding region trigger translation-dependent mRNA decay dlvr.it/TGfTnN
Proteolethargy is a pathogenic mechanism in chronic disease: Cell cell.com/cell/fulltext/…
Identification of a factor that accelerates substrate release from the signal recognition particle | Science science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
Online Now: lncRNAs maintain the functional phase state of nucleolar prion-like protein to facilitate rRNA processing dlvr.it/TGNsHh
New finding on APOE today in @CellCellPress: APOE2 and the Christchurch mutation are defective in LDLR binding. Decreased lipidated ApoE-receptor interactions may protect against the pathogenicity of ApoE and its lipid cargoes in lysosomes cell.com/cell/fulltext/…
We are getting ready for the online symposium with the Biophysical Society. Here is the registration (no fees) link: biophysics.org/upcoming-netwo… @BiophysicalSoc
Cancer cells often harbor oncogenes outside chromosomes on extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA), which is unevenly inherited by dividing cells. Today we report in @Nature that collectives of ecDNAs are inherited together by dividing cancer cells. 1/ nature.com/articles/s4158…
I’m so excited to welcome MrTAC to the world of targeted protein degradation! We created a chemical inducer of arginine methylation that can be used to degrade proteins in lysosomes 💊 So grateful for everyone involved in this project 🥳🥳 nature.com/articles/s4158…
New paper in @ScienceAdvances: We've uncovered the nuclear speckle transcriptome, revealing gene groups with distinct speckle localization properties and that speckles boost splicing for localized transcripts. Thanks to all co-authors! @regevlab science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
📢New paper alert!! With @boothbylab @alexholehouse @fried_lab we take a look at how an entire proteome survives desiccation. TLDR: Desiccation tolerance is encoded in specific residues on the protein surface, and occurs primarily in biosynthetic enzymes. shorturl.at/U5VS1
Gesteund door ALS Liga fonds A Cure for ALS doctoreerde @BoeynaemsSteven in 2017 @ Lab Neurobiologie KULeuven/VIB @LuVaDeBo. Nu is hij assistant Professor @bcmhouston @TexasChildrens waar bij NIH Innovator Award 2,4 M Dollar ontving om eigen lab verder uit te bouwen. Proficiat!
Do you know what I love most about my PhD @JungmannLab? Actually seeing the things I learned from biology textbooks come to life🪄. Check out this DNA-PAINT image of the Golgi, showing both cis (GM130) and trans (TGN38) faces together with peroxisomes. Happy #FluorescenceFriday😊
Literally my favorite author with the best books about the human condition
Ryan Flynn @raflynn5 of @HSCRB, an #NIHHighRisk Transformative Research Awardee, will explore how and why #RNA and RNA-binding proteins function on cell surfaces. This research could lead to transformative insights in cell #biology and disease mechanisms. hscrb.harvard.edu/news/flynn-nih…
