@emilywarmanj Bidirectional promoters in Escherichia coli: regulatory rules and implications for gene expression noise https://t.co/gY9Gwkdifm

[David Grainger @GraingerLab]

We have a post-doc opportunity for a molecular microbiologist available. Please contact directly for an informal discussion.

Well done @mulecc - your PhD work just published 😀https://t.co/8FF3Q00YGu
I think we've only scratched the surface with this... H-NS allowing bacteria to direct their own evolution. Exciting times ahead...

And we're off! IMI summer school 2024 Day 1 with @SamBenedict5 @fozzz21 @emilywarmanj #IMI24

@timothy_fuqua It's from some older work we did on promoters in AT-rich DNA: https://t.co/aWdcGOiDVr

[Emily Warman @emilywarmanj]

@timothy_fuqua This is cool - we see ~10% as well but with 43 bp random sequences. So could be as high as 1 promoter every 430 bp? It's very dependent on AT-content though

The @GraingerLab is finally back from the GRC Mechanisms of Microbial Transcription conference. Learned loads, met some great folk and saw abit of Boston.

#molmicro2022 next speaker @emilywarmanj telling us about her discovery of widespread bidirectional promoters in prokaryotes

Finally able to present this work in person at #Microbio22, I'll be at poster A233 this evening come and say hello 👋

[Emily Warman @emilywarmanj]

I'll be talking about bidirectional promoters in the genetics and genomics session this afternoon @MicrobioSoc #Microbio21 We're very excited about these results so please come and let me know what you think!

[David F @fozzz21]

Got stuck in a lift. Great start to #Microbio22. @mulecc @emilywarmanj

[David Grainger @GraingerLab]

Former PhD student @tom_guest's work on V. cholerae TF VpsT out. Never seen anything with DNA binding properties like this; degenerate target but binds specifically to just 1 of the 2 V. cholerae chromosomes. Any ideas how it might do this🤷‍♂️

1st of 4 PhD projects we're offering this year. Drop me a line if you're interested. This one is focused on unexpected ways in which bacteria control transcription of their chromosomes @FindAPhD: https://t.co/fTSIExmKIg

Finally got to wear my silly hat!

[Ana Juett @AnaJuett]

Well done Dr @emilywarmanj it's offical! (Again...) "a study of integrated promoters in E.coli" xx

[Emily Warman @emilywarmanj]

@rachelkettles @nxwestmidlands Toms on the 50 now and it's definitely still diverted, he said it's not going past the coach station and taking a long route around some construction work

In addition to the Twitter posts on the scientific programme, socials and online networking opportunities at #Microbio21, we enjoyed seeing the many photos of delegates' pets. Take a look at some of the highlights in our blog. https://t.co/3aWd0Q1r6V

Excited to share our research on bidirectional promoters in @NatureMicrobiol today! Here we show that transcription in bacteria isn't as 'straightforward' as we thought... 🧵

[Emily Warman @emilywarmanj]

Bidirectional promoters have significant implications for how we think about transcription regulation, and much more. Check out our Behind the Paper blog post for some of the background story.
