Excited to share our new preprint highlighting how the EDC4-XRN1 interaction remodels P-bodies to coordinate mRNA decapping with decay.

BREAKING NEWS
The 2023 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman for their discoveries concerning nucleoside base modifications that enabled the development of effective mRNA vaccines against COVID-19.

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Dr. Jerry Pelletier, an esteemed alumnus of the Sonenberg lab and a pioneering figure in the field of mRNA translational control. He was more than a colleague; he was a cherished friend and mentor to many.

It’s a bit serendipitous that this is out on our first day (of many) on the road from Montréal to San Diego. Thanks to everyone who made my time @mcgillu incredible!

If you’re interested in RNP granules and how they regulate mRNA translation/decay, I hope you’ll find this interesting. Big thanks to all of my co-authors @mcgillu who helped make this article happen!

This is a landmark achievement. 25 yrs ago, I watched Superman in a wheelchair after falling from a horse tell me that one day neuroscientists would fix spinal cord damage. Today, a digital bridge over the broken spinal cord enabled this guy to walk again https://t.co/50E8uA3e6v

🧬Excited to share our work on the Multi-Omic Analysis of CIC’s Functional Networks!

This work from @mmarra0630's group was co-led by @nique_leb and myself and was supported by many 🇨🇦 colleagues @BCCancer_GSC @BCCancer @Charb_Cancer

@evaubo Nice work! Congrats

@VanessaPorter Atrocious! Quite soon there will be new PhD students enrolled at Canadian Universities who will be paid the same minimum stipend as PhD students were the year they were born. #SupportOurScience

Excited to share our work: https://t.co/v4HJfHZ6z1 Direct functions for P-bodies in mRNA decay pathways has yet to be established. Our study suggests that P-bodies can directly regulate mRNA turnover by sequestering a decay enzyme, which prevents it from binding its target mRNAs.

@anthonykkhong Really nice work Anthony! Congrats
