An integrin beta-1-anchored bicaudal C1-polycystin-1 module essential for tubular morphogenesis in polycystic kidney disease
Genetic variants in the RNA-binding protein bicaudal C1 (BICC1) have been linked to very-early-onset polycystic kidney disease (PKD). This study ident…

One of the areas facing compulsory redundancies at the University of Sheffield is in what was the Department of Chemistry. Sheffield has long had a strong chemistry department, both in teaching and education. An open letter protesting the cuts has been started: savesheffieldchemistry.netlify.app

Finally out in @Cellcellpress! Proteins with long IDRs are prone to misfolding during protein synthesis. This is prevented by mRNA 3′UTRs that act as mRNA-based IDR chaperones. www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

mRNA 3′ UTRs chaperone intrinsically disordered regions to control protein activity
Highly conserved mRNA 3′ UTRs act as co-translational chaperones for intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs), preventing inter-domain misfolding and enabling biogenesis of fully active proteins.
