Excited to share our work with @markrcookson.bsky.social and Payel Sen labs. We combine #SingleCell and #Nanopore sequencing to profile #RNA isoforms from young to geriatric mouse brains. We uncover #aging changes in transcription, processing, and splicing that also impact coding potential. #RNAsky

Neuronal aging leads to widespread dysregulation of RNA biology, including mislocalization of splicing proteins like TDP-43, chronic cellular stress, and reduced resiliency @kevinrhine.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

🚨 We’re looking for a curious mind to join our lab at the NIH! Passionate about #RNA biology, #MachineLearning, and the #genomics of #aging? Interested in a postdoc or a PhD research visit at NIH? Let’s connect. 📩 DM or email for details! #Bioinformatics #AI #ComputationalBiology

A programmable RNA acetylation system using dCas13-eNAT10 is developed to install N4-acetylcytidine on target RNAs in cells and in vivo, enabling functional studies of RNA acetylation and revealing the unique role of RNA acetylation in transcript localization www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The timeline of co-transcriptional #mRNA processing and #modification may have to be revised: cleavage, termination, and #m6A deposition may occur earlier than most #splicing! Potential textbook changing study in bioRxiv by edueyras.bsky.social & Rippei Hayashi labs! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

I've built an #RNA feed for personal use to capture RNA biology posts across the entire network. Some arbitrary filters used to hopefully increase signal to noise ratio but otherwise not moderated. Feel free to follow if you find useful.

An interesting perspective and framework: #RNA condensates-not individual RNAs-may have acted as replicative units in early life. RNAs in condensate recruit similar RNAs, then the condensate divides once it reaches a critical size. #RNAsky

Wonderful collaboration with Payel Sen's group. Spatial transcriptomics reveal #inflammation origins in the white matter of the #aging mouse #brain

New review from the lab looking at high throughput methods of identifying ribosome heterogeneity. Great work from @ferhatalkan.bsky.social, Edwin Kyei-Baffour, and Qi Chang Lin! royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/...

Latest work from our next door neighbors! #RNAsky #RNAbiology

Here's Twitter's descent since 2022

Our paper out in eLife. Full-length direct RNA #nanopore sequencing uncovers 5' #RNA shortening upon cellular #stress that depends on ✅ stress-granules and #XRN1 but ❌ not poly(A) or cap removal elifesciences.org/articles/96284 🤔 useful to further reduce translational load during #ISR? #RNAbiology

If you want to hear me rant about #RNA, #stress, #aging, #senescence come join me at the RNA collaborative seminar tomorrow Wed 4pm (EST) #RNAsociety #RNAsky #RNAbiology

Our latest work is out in Nature today! Using smFRET, we directly visualized recruitment of the eIF4F complex to the 5' cap of eukaryotic mRNAs and formation of an activated mRNA. Our findings reveal new and surprising roles for each eIF4F component. 1/3 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Not looking to start a debate on #nextflow vs. #snakemake, but curious about their ease of adoption in a typical lab setting with ~4-year PhD/postdoc turnover. How do you feel newcomers adapt to each? Would you recommend one for easier onboarding? Feedback appreciated! #genomics #bioinformatics

How can physics define universal laws for computation, from cells and chips to brains? In this @pnas.org Perspective, led by @sfiscience.bsky.social David Wolpert and Jan Korbel, they suggest how Stochastic Thermodynamics can provide the proper framework pnas.org/doi/epub/10....

Tips for scientist that are joining bsky. Super helpful to fill out your profile *before* you follow anyone. Listing interests and what you do helps a lot. At least one post, also helps to set the tone. Then starter packs will help you find accounts. Also ask to be added when within your expertise.

I wrote about the National Institutes of Health and the various serious and unserious proposals for NIH reform that have been floating around. It is important to understand how this agency actually functions and point criticism at the right problems. A short 🧵:
