Our paper is out! Hiding in plain sight among Cas12a nucleases, Cas12a3 cleaves not its RNA target but the 3′ ends of tRNA. Huge thanks to all who made this possible, especially the Beisel lab, Biao & Dirk for the structure, & @sebastianglatt.bsky.social for all things tRNA. doi.org/10.1038/s415...

Lab’s first paper is out!! We show the first structures of #Asgard #chromatin by #cryo-EM 🧬❄️ Asgard histones form closed and open hypernucleosomes. Closed are conserved across #Archaea, while open resemble eukaryotic H3–H4 octasomes and are Asgard-specific. More here: www.cell.com/molecular-ce...

We're hosting the 8th Austrian CryoEM symposium at ISTA Nov 11-12 @istaresearch.bsky.social this year - you don't want to miss! We have a fantastic lineup of invited speakers + selected talks from abstracts #cryoEM Deadline for abstracts Oct 15 Final deadline Oct 31 cryoem-symposium.pages.ist.ac.at

I'm excited to share that our latest review, “Mapping rRNA, tRNA, and mRNA Modifications in Ribosomes at High Resolution”, has just been published in @cp-trendsbiochem.bsky.social! Read the full review here 👉 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Happy to share our latest review on PUS enzymes, which just got published in RNA Biology. Please have a look, if you want to know more about the enzymes that introduce Pseudouridine in RNA molecules. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

We are excited to share our latest research on Q-modification in precursor-tRNAs, which just got published in @natcomms.nature.com. This was a very exciting and fruitful collaboration with @francescatuorto.bsky.social in Heidelberg. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Thrilled to announce the nexy Austrian Cryo-EM Symposium, taking place 11th-12th November at @istaresearch.bsky.social, with speakers inc. @grigoriefflab.bsky.social, @oliveiramann.bsky.social, @bjgreber.bsky.social @svenklumpe.bsky.social @sebastianglatt.bsky.social ‪‬https://tinyurl.com/cryo2025

Dear all, We are starting an exciting new project in close collaboration with Clément Carré in Paris, France. A fully funded PhD position is available in my group at the vetmeduni Vienna! Please help us spreading the word - please forward it to interested students.

2nd Polish #RNA Biology Meeting in #Poznan co-organized by @uam-ibmib.bsky.social‬ has started yeaterday evening with talks of Ramesh Pillai & Sebastian Glatt @sebastianglatt.bsky.social‬ - many more great talks, posters & discussions ahead! #PolishRNABiologyMeeting

“EMBO is really a super-active community,” says Sebastian Glatt @sebastianglatt.bsky.social, EMBO Member, former EMBO Installation Grantee and Professor at the University of Veterinary Medicine Vienna #Austria. Read more here: www.embo.org/people/the-b... 🧪 #LifeSciences #research #opportunities

We are very excited about our latest work, which just came out @embojournal.org – www.embopress.org/doi/full/10..... The work @MCB_UJ was driven by Anna Biela and Ting-Yu Lin 林亭妤 in collaboration with @jmbujnicki.bsky.social…a short🧵

tRNAs are small and sport heterogeneous base modifications – yet @sebastianglatt.bsky.social @jmbujnicki.bsky.social Ting-Yu Lin 林亭妤 et al show #cryoEM combined with biophysical & computational approaches can give insights into how #pseudouridine affects human tRNA! www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....

All Eurpean RNA Researchers: join us at the 2nd Polish RNA Biology Meeting @uam-ibmib.bsky.social,June 24-27 Poznan! Keynote speakers include Elena Conti, Andrzej Dziembowski @sebastianglatt.bsky.social, Reinhard Lührmann, Kai Papenfort, Ramesh Pillai & Bertrand Séraphin! #RNA 2ndrna.web.amu.edu.pl

Austria 🇦🇹congratulates @sebastianglatt.bsky.social who receives the 🇵🇱 FNP Prize 2024 in Life and Earth Sciences – also known as the "Polish Nobel Prize". His findings open new pathways for research into genetic disorders and potential therapeutic developments.🔬 #FoundationForPolishScience
