First ribosome purification using poly-lysine beads (RAPPL, developed by @djuranoviclab.bsky.social & collaborators: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...). Full process—from lysis to grid prep—in just 3 hours. Look how pretty it is (even if a bit too diluted)! This is a game-changer🚀.

A new year, a new social network and a new article in @naturecomms.bsky.social ! It unveils how archaeal RPA orchestrates the recruitment of key players in 🧬 replication primase and polD through its WH domain, with structures of both complexes!! rdcu.be/d6GAY

We are pleased to share our work on the evolution of translation initiation now published in Nature Communications. Take a look at leaderless mRNAs and eS26 in the small ribosomal subunit of Saccharolobus solfataricus. rdcu.be/d5pgg
