Check out our recent review diving into challenges, potential of uncovering microproteins using Ribo-seq and the pursuit of a reference set. Excited by the incredible progress over the last decade and for what's next in this evolving field!🧬👩‍🔬👨‍💻 #Riboseq #RNA #smORFs

[EIRNABio @EIRNABio]

Well done @SoniaChothani @OwenRackham and colleagues for a very nice and comprehensive review of how Ribo-seq can help discover microproteins. Lots of food for thought.

A small team of us has spent nearly a decade working together to get the most out of ribo-seq data for smORF hunting - a journey filled with new ideas, u-turns and a lot of fun! We hope sharing these may help others: https://t.co/W4D6fTCvq4 @SoniaChothani @DerSeb81 @Holab_DukeNUS

Hey @AirbnbHelp! Waiting for a resolution to an issue involving a harrassing/bullying host with innacurate listing. Spoke to 6 different representatives in the last 30 hrs, to no avail. Still waiting for a call from the case manager.

Meanwhile, in the Liver

IL6 = protective, good
IL11 = damaging, bad

And, IL6R and IL11RA expressed on completely different liver cells types. Must mean something....

The plot thickens

The purpose of a PhD should not be training for *one* specific job. The purpose of a PhD should be to develop problem solving, critical thinking, and leadership skills as preparation for *any* job. #PhDchat

[Sonia Chothani @SoniaChothani]

@yu_mengge Hahhaha. Fair question.

[Nature Portfolio @NaturePortfolio]

A human binary protein interactome map that includes around 53,000 protein–protein interactions involving more than 8,000 proteins provides a reference for the study of human cellular function in health and disease, according to a Nature paper. https://t.co/YLm4Y0xQII

@nickywhiffin @wellcometrust @HumanGeneticsOx @UniofOxford Woohoo! Big congratulations Nicky. :)))

@NAChristakis Yes makes sense, thanks for the detailed thread on this. Very insightful. Would be very interesting to study the difference in the immune response across adults and children.

[Sonia Chothani @SoniaChothani]

@Prasanth7177 Yes, I really hope so too. We have the infrastructure from old times PBS and fair price shops. Hope they can leverage this on a large scale now.
