RNA biologist. Postdoc in the Ulitsky Lab at the Weizmann Institute. I like historical fiction novels, photography, sports, wrapping presents, and plants.
Any help will be much appreciated 🙏🏼
Q for #chromatin BSky - We're doing Cut&Run on cells where we want to halt transcription at various short time points after induction, with a cold PBS wash. This cold shock seems to hinder Ab uptake during, so our libraries look crappy. Any tips? Alt. methods to stop transcription?

The ribotoxic stress response drives acute inflammation, cell death, and epidermal thickening in UV-irradiated skin in vivo
Solar UVB light causes damage to the outermost layer of skin. This insult induces rapid local responses, such as dermal inflammation, keratinocyte cel…

That is very interesting!
I wonder if mRNA decay factors play a role in this process.
For instance, Xrn1 was identified early on in yeast to function in strand exchange & homologous recombination.
Pat1 interacts physically with topoisomerase 2 in yeast.

I’m thrilled to share a collaborative story from @Mendell_lab and Jan Erzberger labs, led by postdoc extraordinaire Xiaoqiang Zhu. We showed that in addition to their canonical decoding function, tRNAs play a key role in regulating mRNA stability during translation!

Specific tRNAs promote mRNA decay by recruiting the CCR4-NOT complex to translating ribosomes
The CCR4-NOT complex is a major regulator of eukaryotic messenger RNA (mRNA) stability. Slow decoding during translation promotes association of CCR4-NOT with ribosomes, accelerating mRNA degradation....

In this review @gracebower.bsky.social & I discuss recent evidence showing that, unlike canonical enhancers, long-range enhancers located hundreds of kb from their targets rely on additional mechanisms to ensure robust gene activation during mammal development. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
