A powerful toolbox to study IRES-dependent selective translation of mRNAs. An important resource for the field! Excited to use these new tools to study a critical, yet under-appreciated mechanism of translational specificity. Congrats Barna and Leppek labs! #RNA t.co/LmbFyKIfhh

We are thrilled to share our discovery of a new factor, the RBP RBM42, which is key to fueling pancreas cancer through the deadly oncogene Myc. I look forward to what we uncover next! Thanks to the fantastic team lead by @DavideRuggero @rushika-perera.bsky.social & @genophoria.bsky.social!
