Thrilled to share my first last-author paper, just out in #mSystems! A work about #RBPs, #RNA and #sporulation in #subtilis. Special thanks to my brilliant student T. Kaboré who's signing hist first PhD paper and to the whole team @galinier-lab.bsky.social 👉 journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/...

Nice review on lncRNAs in the brain by John Mattick and colleagues. doi.org/10.1038/s415...

Regulation by RNAs might be even more extensive than we thought. Many enzymes and other proteins not previously considered as RNA-binding proteins do seem to fall into this class & might have their activity regulated by RNA. www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

"m6A in the coding sequence: linking deposition, translation and decay" by Kathi Zarnack (@zarnack-group.bsky.social) & colleagues "This review explores [m6A in] mRNA decay, with a focus on the newly discovered CDS–m6A decay (CMD) pathway..." Read it here: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S...

I am sooo excited. Starting tomorrow the next edition of the fabulous #emboiclip2 course begins. @koenig-lab.bsky.social, @zarnack-group.bsky.social, moi & Elias Bechara will present 3 improvements to the method, a semi-automated workflow for data analysis and an exciting line up of speakers.
