The artist quoted you also; seems believable. In my head I can hear you saying this. The Nucleosome Police are now living in all of our heads rent free. 😂

Heterogeneous template-dependent transcription dynamics of T7 RNAP revealed by single-molecule imaging | PNAS Bacteriophage T7 RNA polymerase (T7 RNAP) is commonly used for large-scale RNA synthesis in science and industry. Although T7 RNAP exhibits high pr...

It is important to understand this as an intentional goal of the attack on civilian science 🧪

And science professors are making a choice right now about whether we will be clear with our students about ethics

Using "in extracto cryo-EM", we visualize ribosomes in mammalian lysates, including RRL. "Hibernating" ribosomes carry an extended set of proteins that protect functional centers. These include elongation factor eEF2, LARP1 implicated in mTOR signaling, eIF5A etc. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

GGNBP2 regulates MDA5 sensing triggered by self double-stranded RNA following loss of ADAR1 editing GGNBP2, CNOT10, and CNOT11 are required for innate immune response after the loss of ADAR1-mediated editing of self dsRNA.

Time for a 🧵 on our new paper from the Walkley lab in @scienceimmuno.bsky.social.

If you're into RNA editing by ADARs, double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) sensing, post-transcriptional gene regulation and CRISPR screening, then read on! 1/X

Beyond Active learning How not to be a passive instructor in an active classroom.

Active learning can take many forms, but all require students to actively participate rather than passively absorb content. Typically, this involves structured activities such as group work, guided worksheets, think-pair-share, gallery walks, and jigsaw activities.

Who am I if I’m not a #DevelopmentalBiologist? A (long) thread. Today on my re-introduction to BlueSky, I would like to tell you how I got here. I am a #FirstGen college attendee and graduate. I was raised in a single-parent household. We struggled financially when I was growing up. 1/

Shout out to former labbie Sam Fagg now Asst Prof at UT Galveston on his lab's publication in Elife - the branch point consensus sequence bound by SF1 is ~same as the QKI recognition site. WUT? Turns out the two proteins been fighting for years!
