piRNAs are essential for transposon silencing in the animal germline.
But how do hosts trap transposon sequences in genomic loci that help establish a piRNA response?

Looking at a natural transposon invasion, Baptiste Rafanel and Kirsten Senti made some remarkable observations.

Post-Translational Modifications Remodel Proteome-Wide Ligandability Post-translational modifications (PTMs) vastly expand the diversity of human proteome, dynamically reshaping protein activity, interactions, and localization in response to environmental, pharmacologi...

Excited to share a new preprint from the lab. We show that PTMs like phosphorylation & glycosylation dynamically reshape proteome-wide ligandability in cells, including proteins like KRAS. Great collaboration with the Huang Lab, @forlilab.bsky.social and BMS. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Fun fact, bluesky doesn’t let you upload gifs yet. So this is my “blew your mind” gif. Very sorry 😬

OK but stamps are also sold as one giant perforated unit. Yet a stamp is a single serving. If the perforation don’t fit, you must acquit

Several groups have presented sc/snRNA-seq analyses of Arabidopsis leaves after bacterial infection before. Is there anything left to discover? Turns out: Yes.

Awesome!!

Even better 😂😂

Sir, just admit you stopped at in-n-out😅

As I keep saying, it’s the end of US science if this bullshit is allowed to continue

Rubisco enzyme is responsible for capturing CO2 from the atmosphere, crucial for photosynthesis. Recent research has mapped mutant Rubisco molecules which could revolutionize plant CO2 assimilation & adapt to future climates

A single-cell multi-omics atlas of rice - Nature A single-cell multi-omics atlas of rice is revealed, providing insight into cell-type functions and molecular programs.

An @nature paper presents a single-cell multi-omics atlas of eight rice organs. Insights emerging from this resource include new cell states during rice development and correlations between cell type and agronomic traits.

Looking good (still) young man😅😂

Exactly right. There is no functional difference between a 10% and a 20% grant. It’s a lottery. Speculation, but I bet 30%-40% science is outstanding too…
