check out our new preprint! we solved a new nuclease-blocking viral #RNA structure and found some illuminating similarities across diverse viral families. Thread below ⬇️ biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

1. Hi #RNA friends, just in time for the holidays I am excited to share the latest pre-print from my group. We solved the structure of a mysterious viral RNA that resists degradation by host nucleases. A short 🧵 & link below – please also check out the full video! #lovevirology

My co-first author paper now out in @Nature SWR1 specifically exchanges H2A/H2B dimers for Htz1/H2B dimers in nucleosomes. Here we show double dimer exchange can be processive, explaining how SWR1 ‘proofreads’ dimer identity in a nucleosome. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Congrats to Weiyi whose work in catalyzing chemical reactions using scanning tunneling microscope break junction is published in @J_A_C_S! In collaboration with the Lu group @CityUScience, we observe formation of Au-C and C-C bonds from single-molecule conductance data.@PHY_CityU

Sitting here updating my notebook and thinking how much being a wet lab scientist is like being an emo teen again "Dear diary, today I ran a gel. It did not go well"

Couldn't be online a lot last week cause of the amazing #RNA2024 meeting, but our latest preprint is out! In case you couldn't catch our poster at the meeting (or if you did and want a second look :P), check out our dissection of the UUCG stem-loop dynamics!
Ruben Gonzalez@rubenlgonzalez

New preprint alert! Using a single-molecule field effect transistor (smFET), we characterize the fast folding and unfolding transitions of a single UUCG RNA stem-loop at a time resolution of tens of microseconds. 1/5 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I am delighted to share the newest work from the @SternbergLab, in which we discover RNA-templated gene creation as a mechanism of antiviral immunity. This is a story for anyone who loves molecular biology, and one that repeatedly left us in disbelief. doi.org/10.1101/2024.0…

@sharbat_c The number of times I've asked kab to my hindi-speaking friends and gotten a date in response when I wanted the time or the reverse is too damn high. Eventually substituted to "kis time pe", which I guess flew well in Mumbai.

Something I realised recently via listening to Bengali L2 speakers (n = 2, with Hindi as L1) is that Hindi kab-inspired Bengali kåbe is used to refer to 'at what time', which in Bengali is usually kåkʰon while kåbe refers to 'on what day'. What is a Hindi equivalent of kåkʰon?
