I’m excited that this review co-written with my colleague and friend Carl Walkley is now published! We focused on genetic studies, from mouse to human, that uncover the functional importance and mechanisms of RNA editing enzyme ADAR1 and reveal exciting therapeutic potential. #ADAR #RNAediting

Immensely grateful for the tireless dedication of the entire OneAIRNA team! The potential of the ADAR-mediated RNA base editing modality is truly extraordinary, and this is just the beginning. I look forward to AIRNA's continued pioneering innovations as we embrace the next chapter together.

AIRNA Raises Oversubscribed $155 Million Series B Financing to Fund Phase 1/2 Clinical Trial for Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency and Future Pipeline β€” Airna Financing led by Venrock Healthcare Capital Partners with co-lead Forbion Growth, and participation from RTW Investments, Nextech Invest, and other new

Happy April Fool’s Day! But the news from AIRNA is no joke! It’s been incredibly rewarding and humbling to witness the journey of RNA base editing, from the early days in the labs of my co-founder Thorsten Stafforst and mine, to the remarkable progress we see today. #ADAR #RNAediting

I am so sorry Sri about what your daughter and your family are going through. I cannot imagine how difficult this has been for you all. Sending my best wishes!

Taking control with RNA - Nature Methods As they study the emerging roles of RNA in disease and homeostasis, some scientists use RNA editing to direct precise RNA changes that shape cellular events.

A nice article written by Vivien Marx @naturemethods.bsky.social featuring RNA editing, from biology to therapy. I enjoyed talking with her to offer my 2 cents. Exciting times ahead! #ADAR

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
