Our latest publication reports the cryo-EM structures of the human Polα-Primase DNA elongation complexes - https://t.co/IVPXxLE7ps A Lim lab X Tahirov lab collaboration led by @QixiangHe and Andrey. Thank you, @sarakosman & @NatureSMB, for working with us! Please RT to share! 1/4

@UWMadisonRNA Hahaha!

Now I kind of wish we'd called pUG RNA structure a "pUGoda"

New from the Coyle Lab (and their first preprint!) ⬇️

@cijilim @NatureSMB @UWBiochem Thanks CJ!

[Judith Simcox PhD @JudithSimcox]

Excited to have this preprint out on work from @raghav_jain1 and @_JessDavidson in my group.

Current LDL and HDL markers do not predict CVD in Black women. We used LCMS based lipidomics to identify arachodonic acid containing lipids as CVD predictors.

[Elizabeth Wright @erwright73]

First pre-print from the lab! #CryoEM structures of the #Caulobacter flagellum and associations with phage. Lovely work by Eric, Nicoleta, Juan, @Microscope_Dan @RebeccaDillard Conrad, @ZunlongKe and Ricardo.

[John Gross Lab @JDGrossLab]

And see companion paper with structural work by @SamuelEButcher and colleagues suggesting a gated mechanism for Lsm1-7 access to internal RNA binding sites. Both studies point to Pat1 as the gatekeeper!

[John Gross Lab @JDGrossLab]

Congratulations to Joe Lobel for recent publication on how the mRNA decay factor Pat1 increases range of RNA substrates bound by the Lsm1-7 complex! Wishing Joe best of luck as he departs for work with @nickingolia. https://t.co/nSQ3g7CD8t

[Allison Didychuk @DrDidychuk]

Excited to have been selected and looking forward to getting to know these awesome scientists!!
