(1/7) How does T. brucei achieve a 140-fold stoichiometric excess of VSG mRNA over upstream ESAGs from a single polycistronic unit? Our latest research in @natmicrobiol.nature.com reveals a mechanism of spatially regulated RNA decay to fine-tune expression of virulence genes

We’re hiring a PDRA and a technician! If you’re passionate about #parasites #genomes #condensates then this project is for you! Help us decode the role of nuclear architecture in gene expression regulation in #Leishmania alongside the @mottramlab.bsky.social @york.ac.uk @ybri-uoy.bsky.social

How do parasites strategically organise their genomes to influence gene expression? If you’re curious, check our latest review in @cp-trendsparasitol.bsky.social ! @biologyatyork.bsky.social @ybri-uoy.bsky.social @pasteur.fr www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

We identified 3 novel proteins at the ESB that negatively regulate genes co-transcribed with the active-VSG through specialised and spatially regulated RNA decay. #RNA #condensates #3Dgenome #RNAdecay

A bit late, but I fantastic time at @embl.org in Grenoble last week! Huge thanks to @kowaeva.bsky.social for the invitation and exciting discussions!

Are you interested in #trypanosomes #biomolecularcondensates and/or #geneexpression? We are looking for a highly motivated postdoc to work with with us in the beautiful city of York! Please share! jobs.york.ac.uk/vacancy/post...
