💥Finally out! Answering a two-centuries old question about a membraneless organelle that forms in #oocytes from insects to humans: the Balbiani body (Bb). Now in @currentbiology.bsky.social : cell.com/current-biol... >

First #bluetorial. 🎉🎉 We’re very happy to share our latest biorxiv #preprint, just in time before the holiday season. We explored how transposable elements (TEs) diversify eukaryotic proteomes and found a cool case in nematode F-box genes. #TEsky #evosky #Celegans Short 🧵 with highlights.

Transposable elements drive regulatory and functional innovation of F-box genes https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.12.17.628972v1

We are looking for new group leaders. If RNA is your thing, and/or computational biology and you want to start your own group, check out these links. Feel free to contact me about these! And, please help me spread this. Thanks! www.imb.de/jobs/jobdeta... www.imb.de/jobs/jobdeta...

Universal Single Copy Knock-In System in Caenorhabditis elegans: One Plasmid to Target All Chromosomes https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.12.06.627295v1

And since we're here... 🥼 Join us as a Group Leader in #ComputationalBiology or #RNA Biology 🧬 More details via www.imb.de/jobs Application deadline is 5 January 2025 #sciencejobs #resilience #biostatistics

Join us in San Diego. A great meeting and also featuring the RNA Journal

Researchers in @labgrosshans.bsky.social & their collaborators developed a tool that maps how proteases—enzymes that process proteins—cut their targets. The work, published in Molecular Systems Biology, could revolutionize drug design for conditions like diabetes. www.fmi.ch/news-events/...

And don't forget: many nematode species have lost them altogether! A huge puzzle. doi.org/10.1002/wrna...

Interesting findings by the Zarnack and König labs: www.cell.com/molecular-ce... #RNAbiology

Made an RNA Biology starter pack for folks moving over from Twitter go.bsky.app/77FHCU1 #rnabiology 🧪 #rna

Small RNA Biology starter pack, with a heavy bias towards our worm community! Just getting this started, and we'd like it to max out, so please message me if I've missed you (and apologies!)! go.bsky.app/HgPCPen

Excellent opportunity in Toronto.

Question to worm colleagues: do you know of a transgene that starts to be transcribed in Z2/3, and is not provided maternally?

Happy to share the publication of the IDRome paper:   Conformational ensembles of the human intrinsically disordered proteome   Work led by Giulio Tesei and Anna Ida Trolle    I'll post more later, but for now here is a link: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

New publication from our group: An extended Tudor domain within Vreteno interconnects Gtsf1L and Ago3 for piRNA biogenesis in Bombyx mori www.embopress.org/doi/full/10.... We propose this may be how Piwi activity can be restricted environments suited for further piRNA production

Master's Thesis Opportunity! The Ameres lab is looking for a passionate master's student to delve into the mysteries of chemical RNA modifications ✨ ➡️ Apply here: tinyurl.com/39hhkd7t

🚨🚨🚨🤝🧬🔍 We are recruiting group leaders for the #GenomeBiologyDepartment at the I2BC (France). Open to all relevant topics, with particular interest in RNA biology, chromatin organization, genome stability and gene expression. i2bc.paris-saclay.fr/jobs/ DM me for info! Please RT🙏

The non-coding repetitive genome as a source of regulatory DNA elements in cancer: a highlight of the recent work from Biswajyoti Sahu: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Are you an RNA biologist or developmental biologist studying cardiac development? Join us at our new lab at the Vascular Research Center @UK_Frankfurt . We are expanding our team: Currently hiring 1 Postdoc and 2 PhD students to study mRNA translation @ERC_Research Please share 🙏

Good start of the day: zebrafish grant from the DFG awarded🎉. Thanks anonymous reviewers for your support! Amazing how nerves still fire uncontrollably when such a mail arrives, and you do not yet know whether good or bad will follow…😄

Had a great time in Muenster, visiting the MaleGermCells Clinical Research Unit. Thanks to Erez Raz for the hospitality and Frank Tuttelmann BirgitStallmey LeahBiggs Ivan Bedzhov, Timo Strünker and Erez (again😊) for great discussions!

First step into small RNAs in ants together with the group of SusanneFoitzik. 🙏to former tweeter Ann Sophie Seistrup and Shamitha Govind from my group and all other colleagues on this work to realize this.

Yesterday evening I found out my friend got murdered in his house together with his wife and all his kids. He was a very good man who helped anybody as a principle, even if you weren't close with whatever you might need. A real Kibbutznik. I am broken. Everybody around me getting similar news.

Slowly probing Bluesky instead of x…so, some baits to position our research at IMB Mainz on this platform: #Celegans #devbio #zebrafish #RNA #piRNA #Transposon #germgranules #germcells www.imb.de/research/ket...

New program out for IDPseminars! New attendees sign up here: idpseminars.com We have relied heavily on Twitter for our PR until now, so its slow but painful death spiral leaves us in a bit of a pickle. Please help us rebuild our following over here by re-tweeting.

Pls share: I'm happy to announce that, as of next week, I'm taking up a new role as Fellow of Trinity College, Oxford and my lab will transition to its new home in the Department of Biochemistry in 2024. 1/2

I am looking for wet and dry lab postdocs who want to join my group to study epigenetic determinants of sex bias in autoimmunity. Please spread the word.

Let’s Kick off BlueSky with our latest work on piRNA processing by a novel nuclease named PUCH. Fantastisch collab with together with @sebastianfalk.bsky.social : nature.com/articles/s4158…
