Favorite volunteering gig: Big Biology Day in October! πŸ’š
Huge thanks to our next-generation assistants β€” the teens who made it all run so smoothly!
And to @valerialulla.bsky.social, who inspires (and leads!) our station every year πŸ™Œ

Our lab is recruiting a PhD student to explore how RNA viruses hijack ribosomes and reprogram host translation.
A great opportunity for anyone passionate about RNA biology and virology!

The mechanism of ribosomal recruitment during translation initiation on Type 2 IRESs The encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) IRES and other Type 2 IRESs comprise domains H-L and specifically interact with eIF4G/eIF4A through their essential JK domain. However, the JK domain is not suffi...

These findings are similar to recent work on the EMCV Type 2 IRES β€” see e.g. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...; www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... β€” and suggest that common structural motifs and mechanisms may exist within highly divergent picornavirus IRES sequences

A nighttime shot of a grand hall filled with posters at #Microbio25.
Thanks to everyone who came to the discussion about functional RNA elements in viral genomes after finding my poster among this abundance.
