Nature Communications selected our cooperative riboswitch manuscript as an Editor's Highlight: nature.com/collections/hh… "A small RNA that cooperatively senses two stacked metabolites in one pocket for gene control"

A surprise from a tiny #riboswitch: "Type I" riboswitch #ncRNAs for the modified nucleobase #preQ1 have been found by the @WedekindJoseph lab to stack two ligands in their #aptamer binding pocket. Only 34 nucleotides are used to achieve this RNA trick! nature.com/articles/s4146…

@pjlmac @RonBreaker Thanks Phil!

@RonBreaker @WedekindJoseph Beautiful paper and research!!! Congrats @WedekindJoseph!!!
