We’ve been calling RecA730 “constitutively active”… but what does that really mean? In our new @repair_dna @Sciencedirect paper, we show: SOS is induced without damage, but not fully ON in lexA⁺. It’s not ON vs OFF… but how ON it is! Read more here: https://t.co/WDpAyHOnMn

For all DNA repair and mutagenesis enthusiasts: the 7th edition of Fundamental Aspects of DNA Repair and Mutagenesis (VII FARM-DNA) is coming!🧬🛠

Registrations are open until July 31! To register and submit your abstract, visit: https://t.co/lTzgXAL4DW

See you there! 😉

Ever read a drug label and checked its mechanism of action? That’s basic research! And without government funding for this science, there are no safe and effective medicines for your illness. Cutting funding means cutting treatments.

My lab at UVA is looking to hire a Postdoc to study mechanisms of DNA repair in chromatin using biochemical, biophysical, and structural biology approaches!

Feel free to share with anyone you think may be interested.

@palconh @MolBiolAU Congratulations, Pablo! That this bench brings a lot of new papers 🤗🤗

[Marcela, PhD @MTLetal]

You can find the paper here, as an open access: https://t.co/d3JItHYEK5

Excited to share our new publication in @repair_dna @Elsevier_Sci! We reveal the roles of Polɩ & Polκ in TMZ resistance in MGMT-deficient glioblastoma. Targeting these enzymes may boost TMZ's effectiveness.

Huge thanks to Dr. Menck & @WoodgateLab for their support!!

Introducing Chromo, our new package for performing differential analysis in chromosome regions. Chromo works with any type of quantitative data, including RNA-seq, single-cell RNA-seq, ATAC-seq, ChIP-seq, and more. It will be available soon

Honored to received the FARE for the 2025 competition at NIH! 🎉 Proud to be one of the 15 @NICHD_NIH winners. Thanks to @NIH FelCom and @NIH_OITE for their support! 🎊

Corrigindo: pra carreira em São Paulo. Ainda esperamos que as agências federais possam acompanhar o passo, bem como as questões salariais pra professores em federais e estaduais! Pq não adianta nada melhorar o salário de pós doc, se o passo seguinte como professor não acompanha..

[Marcela, PhD @MTLetal]

A agência de financiamento a pesquisa de São Paulo (FAPESP) anunciou um reajuste de até 45% nas bolsas. Mas não é só isso, agora quem tiver doutorado concluído e bolsa FAPESP vai ter também ressarcimento de previdência social! Que mudança importante para a carreira no Brasil ❤️

@AskWorkspace I am the admin of “DNA Repair Brasil” for some reason, this is not showing up in my account anymore. It seems to have being deleted, therefore I can let email the participants anymore not add participants. Please, help me 😬
