This intact tRNA acylation assay discriminates acyl from non-acyl-tRNA, identifies rare acyl-tRNA species, and can quantify low-yield reactions.
Congrats Riley, Cameron, Isaac, Sarah, @schepartzlab! #NSFfunded
Thoroughly enjoyed sharing my research on engineering aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases without relying on ribosomal translation, published earlier this year.
Thank you Prof. Ruchi Anand (@ruchianand1975 ) and @Chemistry_IITB for hosting me!

🍝 It’s #NationalPastaDay! We use pasta to teach how monomer sequence and shape controls the final structure and, therefore, potential functions of a polymer.
