Hey Frog-Folk, I saw that @eliasbarrigalab.bsky.social recently used Crispr-Cas13 for mRNA depletion. Anyone else used this in a published paper yet?

A protein complex in the extreme distal tip of vertebrate motile cilia controls their organization, length, and function - Nature Communications Here they combine in vivo imaging with proteomics to characterize a protein complex comprised of Ccdc78 and Ccdc33 that acts at the extreme distal tip of 9 + 2 motile cilia to control tip architecture...

Cilia alert! Stoked to have the new paper from Juyeon Hong about a new domain at the extreme distal tip of motile cilia! (The EDT, y'all!) It's out now @natcomms.nature.com.
Check it out!

Side hustle level-up! My book, IN THE BEGINNING, will be published by @harperonebooks.bsky.social in 2027! It's about the human embryo, how it gets built, and what it means for where we come from and where we're going.
