Happy to share Joey (Zhuoyi)'s review on technologies to map RBP:RNA and (especially) RBP-associated RNA:RNA interactions is now up at RNA! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41535089

Progress and challenges in profiling protein-RNA and protein-associated RNA-RNA interactions - PubMed
RNA binding proteins (RBPs) play essential roles in post-transcriptional gene regulation by interacting with a wide range of RNA targets. In addition to regulating RNA processing via individual RBP-RNA interactions, there is a growing appreciation of the regulatory impact of protein-associated RNA-R …

Some cool work with the www.daughertylab.org at UCSD is up! Started by looking at how IFIT2/3 inhibit VSV infection, wound up uncovering a new mechanism for translation inhibition of mRNAs with short 5'UTRs pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41093992

Many conserved exons in the heart and brain utilize weak 5 ′ splice sites, yet they are accurately spliced. But how? We show that splicing fidelity is actively enforced through a QKI-U6 checkpoint at the U1→U6 handover in essential cardiac genes during organogenesis. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

QKI ensures splicing fidelity during cardiogenesis by engaging the U6 tri-snRNP to activate splicing at weak 5ʹ splice sites
During organogenesis, precise pre-mRNA splicing is essential to assemble tissue architecture. Many developmentally essential exons bear weak 5'splice sites (5'SS) yet are spliced with high precision, ...

Excited to share some new work from our group - www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... A great collaboration with @kurianlab.bsky.social that began with how an RBP (QKI) controls cardiomyocyte function, and led to uncovering a unique mechanism of direct interaction with U6 & the tri-snRNP at weak 5'SS
