My first ever project. So happy to see this published! Viruses can do the craziest things - even remodeling ribosomes🦠

[Dana-Farber News @DanaFarberNews]

New research by @DanaFarber’s Amy Lee, PhD, and Max Fels, PhD, published in @CELL reveals that giant DNA viruses encode a distinct and functional IF4F translation-initiation complex to drive protein synthesis, thereby blurring the line between living cells and viruses.

@RouskinLab Wow he’s wearing a tie and everything

[Plaschka Lab @plaschka_lab]

Human mRNAs form globules in 3D and are prepared for export by the transcription-export complex. We are excited to share this and more mechanistic insights in our newest work, co-lead by the fantastic @bpachecofiallos and @MVorlandr. https://t.co/3gek1QRSu2 (1/9)

Check out our new paper showing a role of eIF5A2 in cellular antiviral response

[EIRNABio @EIRNABio]

eIF5A2, despite sharing 84% amino acid homology with eIF5A1, was found to play no role in mRNA translation. Instead, it regulated gene expression at the transcriptome level, revealing a formally uncovered role in anti-viral activity.
