New lab at the Clemson Center for Human Genetics researching RNA structure and post-transcriptional regulation!

[Alain Laederach @alaederach]

Our latest work on mRNA structure and splicing where Jaya Kumar in my lab predicted the footprint of the spliceosome on pre-mRNAs and used this in conjunction with endogenous structure probing to predict PSI in MAPT.

I'm excited to see the pre-cursor RNA structure/splicing work graduate student Jaya Kumar (@JayashreeKumar, @alaederach) and I did together out in @biorxivpreprint! We used MAPT precursor RNA as a model to understand genetic variation, RNA structure and splicing!

Skimmed through my PhD lab notebook one last time this week - almost brought me into tears. My lab notebook is like a diary of grad school, recorded all the raw emotions, and also how often my experiments failed. Like, most of the time actually and it was pretty hard lol. 🥲🥲🥲

For journal club, we read a ribosomal RNA depletion paper (RTR2D) and plan to try it out in for samples in the lab! Check it out here: https://t.co/ST06kHyiFt

[RNAgirl @LackeyLab]

Journal Club: We discussed Gawroński, et al.'s paper on the interplay between RNA structure and translational regulation in response to environmental conditions (plants - low or high light). This is a great paper and discussion (summed up https://t.co/yht0MBmb5A).

First tests with the new implementation of my drawing algorithm for #RNA 2D named booquet. 600 @RfamDB entries drawn and merged into a single picture with #imagemagick. Really satisfying to see all these different architectures. #visualization #bioinformatics

[RNAgirl @LackeyLab]

Excited to be looking for a new colleague at the Clemson Center for Human Genetics - https://t.co/TkmdjSKppj. Review begins Feb 15th. Hoping for more RNA biologists to join us!
