Excited to share the published version of our work @Nature! We revealed the mechanism + structural basis of microRNA degradation, and showed how ZSWIM8 defines a novel class of Cullin–RING E3 ligases + targets an asymmetric substrate as a dimer + uses RNAs in recognition. [1/2]

biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Delighted to share the story of two germline RBPs - with little (DND1) or no (NANOS3) intrinsic sequence-specificity - that together build a continuous RNA binding surface recognizing a 7-mer (AUGAAUU) in target mRNA 3’UTRs, leading to deadenylation.

Love “Word On The Street”! Looking forward to being @sutherlandbooks Sunday at 11:00 am to discuss my book, “The Exclusion Effect: How The Sciences Discourage Girls & Women & What To Do About It.” Shortlisted for a 2024 Science Writers and Communicators of Canada book award
