The demystification of piRNA clusters if you wonder how cells generate piRNAs specifically against transposons & you are looking for a weekend read check out @86dominik.bsky.social's opus magna (or Dominik's great thread) a shared project with the one and only Rippei Hayashi, lab alumnus & friend

Do you want to understand how RNA #splicing decisions are made? We‘ve got a PhD position open for you (see 👇👇)!! Please share #RNAsky and RT! tinyurl.com/4ztu9cb9

Happy to see our study out! We define the sequence determinants for miRNA-target interactions in flies and provide a foundation for improving computational prediction of miRNA-mediated regulation in Drosophila. www.nature.com/articles/s41... #miRNA, @natcomms.nature.com, @rti-umasschan.bsky.social

Thrilled by the interest already shown in the CNRS-funded thematic school dedicated to small regulatory RNAs—and there is still time to join us! 📅 Oct 6–10, 2025 📍 Sète, France (Le Lazaret) 🧬 Focus on siRNAs, miRNAs & piRNAs across eukaryotes Details & registration: internat25.sciencesconf.org

Une mise en avant de nos travaux récents sur le gène DDX17 dans les troubles du neurodéveloppement. @lbmcinlyon.bsky.social @ensdelyon.bsky.social @inserm.fr @jcourchet.bsky.social centre-imind.fr/identificati...

A écouter: un podcast dans lequel @mirko-francesconi.bsky.social nous parle de nématodes et d'épigénétique. Un grand merci à @cnrs-rhoneauvergne.bsky.social. www.cnrs.fr/fr/podcast-q...

I am pleased to announce the upcoming thematic school on small regulatory RNAs. It will take place in Sète from October 6–10, 2025. Pre-registration is open until June 6. For further information, please refer to the attached flyer and visit: internat25.sciencesconf.org. @cnrsbiologie.bsky.social

Hi! Here is a PhD opportunity at Montpellier, IGH institute with Séverine Chambeyron to study endogenous retroviruses ! #TEsky #PhD

Hot off the press from the Zamore lab on @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social Defining the roles of the Integrator, NEXT, and nuclear exosome complexes in Drosophila oogenesis www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

On May 7, the 19th Annual Microsymposium on RNA Biology will be held at the Vienna BioCenter. Submit your abstract by February 28! Details are below. #microsymposium2025 #smallrna #events

Our latest work on HIV-1 translational control is out! @naturecomms.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41... Here, we performed a transcriptomics, translatomics and whole proteomics analysis during the course of infection. @lbmcinlyon.bsky.social @ensdelyon.bsky.social @inserm.fr

#Argonautes2025 update ... it will happen this August (27-30) @imgprague.bsky.social. Our ITs are finishing and testing the website, the registration will open on March 1st. More info will be provided later (once all speakers reply to my e-mail, just saying, not pushing 😁). Poster announcement:

Check out our new article on #autophagy in #BPAN neurological disease available in bioRxiv. #raredisease #drosophila. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Cheers! @ensdelyon.bsky.social @lbmcinlyon.bsky.social

ONE MONTH left to submit your abstract for a short talk at the 2025 RNA Therapeutics: From Concept to Clinic (in person and virtual!) https://buff.ly/4hJHLdC #RNATx2025

Check it out! Another novel RNA modification - ADP-ribosylation - that was previously only known on proteins. A cousin to #glycoRNA 👏 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Genome architecture folks, this perspective is really worth your time www.cell.com/molecular-ce...

Any slug enthusiasts among my followers? Please RT. Our lab develops a slug laboratory model from Deroceras laeve (genomes, CRISPRs, small RNAs ...) and I am opening one PhD position on "piRNa and genome defense in gastropods". Info & online application here: www.img.cas.cz/kariera/phd-...

Our review on small endogenous RNAs in animals is online: www.nature.com/articles/s41.... We thank @martinjsimard.bsky.social, @svobodalab.bsky.social and the third, anonymous, reviewer for helping us improve our manuscript. @lbmcinlyon.bsky.social @cnrsbiologie.bsky.social

I have one open PhD position. Maybe one of the last PhD positions in the lab as I'm planning changes in what we do and how we will do it some five years from now. I'm offering freedom (pun intended), respect, an interesting project, and a good full time contract w. health insurance.

Our miRNA story is now in @science.org ! We found a microRNA, not a protein, that finally solved a long-standing evolutionary mystery of wing coloration in butterflies and moths. (1/n) www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

RiSANA is online! We detail the Ribosome Stimulated Angiogenin Nuclease Assay (RiSANA) to explore: (a) whether Angiogenin is activated by bacterial 70S ribosomes; and (b) whether the closest homolog RNase 4 is stimulated by 80S: tinyurl.com/3fftczrw Congrats Emily Sholi and Anna Loveland!

MirGeneDB 3.0 is published. Great teamwork and substantial improvement of database, Taxon sampling and we took over nomenclature of novel genes and families, too academic.oup.com/nar/advance-...
