We spent the weekend at FORSCHA Munich Science Days with the other Munich clusters of excellence teaching kids all about DNA and RNA! 🧬✨ After learning how codons work, they put their new knowledge to the test by coding their very own DNA wristbands to take home. #NUCLEATECluster #ScienceComm

Is it anything Hfq-like (RNA chaperone)? Or similar to CsrA (global translation modulator)? We don't know yet. But as it stands, Bacteroidota RRM proteins appear as excellent candidates to map post-transcriptional networks in a substantial fraction of the microbiota. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
