I made a short video talking about our most recent research article published in Genes & Development where we characterised the cytosolic localisation and role of the conserved RNA binding protein Mei2. You can read all about it here: genesdev.cshlp.org/content/40/5...

You are finishing your PhD and looking to continue in science? The Martin lab @biology-unige.bsky.social has an open postdoctoral position in cell biology to study cell-cell fusion. For more information, please consult mocel.unige.ch/research-gro.... Thanks for reposting!

🆕 ADVANCE ONLINE 🆕 RESEARCH PAPER: Gamete fusion triggers cytosolic functions and P-body recruitment of the RNA-binding protein Mei2 to drive fission yeast zygotic development By Araoyinbo et al., and Aleksandar Vještica ➡️ https://ow.ly/99UX50Ye5KZ Ayokunle Araoyinbo @vjesticalab.bsky.social

Woke later than usual; light seeping into the sky and birds singing snd I realised: it’s here, it’s finally here at last! A happy, healthy, hope-filled #WinterSolstice to you and yours!

🚨 Publication alert by @ayoaraoyinbo.bsky.social et al. from @vjesticalab.bsky.social in @genesdev.bsky.social In this study, they asked what actually changes at the moment of #gamete #fusion to launch zygotic development in #fission #yeast. 🔗 genesdev.cshlp.org/content/earl... @unil.bsky.social
