🌿 Big announcement 🌿
Over the past 5 years, we’ve been working on a new kind of air-purifying technology built hand-in-hand with nature. We couldn't be more excited to release it tomorrow (April 24th). Stay tuned: https://t.co/QMX9ZHXhJK

"When I first came here, I'm a bit ashamed to admit this, but I was trying to hide the fact that I came from Lebanon."
2021 medicine laureate Ardem Patapoutian on the importance of inclusion and learning to love his immigrant background.

Nothing gets me more excited about the future of synthetic biology than @iGEM !! Lucky to be here for the #iGEM2022 Jamboree in Paris! Only place you will find CRISPR costumes 🤣🧬🤣 Good luck to all the teams competing for the Biobrick !! 😃😃😃
Today's #shoutout to #womeninSTEM goes to Dona Sleiman for her awesome @ScienceMagazine paper showing how #phage use a third purine biosynthetic pathway encoded by aminoadenine-based viral #DNA#genomes.

Over 40 years ago scientists discovered a type of bacteriophage that incorporated Z (2-aminoadenine) rather than the 'usual' A (adenine) in its DNA.
Only now are we starting to understand how and why:

The 3D structure of PurZ enzyme, responsible for Z synthesis, was determined using X-ray diffraction data collected on the two SOLEIL bio-crystallography beamlines, @PROXIMA_1 and @Proxima2A
The results are published in @Science

La vie a une fin. Ne jamais commencer à vivre en dispense. Une vie riche et belle connaît une issue qui en fait partie, comme la ponctuation finale d’une belle histoire. Elle peut même en être l’enluminure signifiante. Un crépuscule flamboyant après tant d’aurores bleuissantes.
A research group led by Dona Sleiman from the Institute Pasteur in Paris has discovered that some viruses show more variation in their genetic coding than was previously known. That suggests the genetic code of extraterrestrials could be stranger still.

Une étude révèle le mécanisme de substitution de l’adénine par l’aminoadénine dans l’ADN de certains #bactériophages, ce qui leur permet de survivre dans l’hôte. Cette base serait présente depuis des stades archaïques de l’évolution.

More than four decades in the making, new research discovers how dozens of bacteriophages write their #genomes using a chemical base called 2-aminoadenine, Z for short, instead of adenine.

@SGribaldo@PierreSGarcia Thank you Simonetta for sharing this work I enjoyed doing & presenting for the structural biology department in Pasteur in December 2017😍😍😍
