It's DNA Day 🧬 but I'm repping RNA 💉 with undergrad researcher Kelly. Kelly was in an NHGRI-supported program at the UCSC Genomics Institute until Wednesday when the grant was terminated. 🤷‍♂️ Her stipend was rescinded mid-quarter by the NIH. We found her some funding 💪 and she cannot be stopped. 🚀

I’ll be there. There is a war on science happening. I intend to fight back.

I’ll be in DC March 7th at the StandUpForScience rally. See you there! If you can’t make it to DC there will be a StandUpForScience rally in a city near you. @standupforscience.bsky.social

Functional screen identifies RBM42 as a mediator of oncogenic mRNA translation specificity - Nature Cell Biology
Kovalski et al. perform a genome-wide CRISPRi screen for selective MYC mRNA translation regulators and identify RBM42 as a ribosome-associated protein that modulates translation of MYC and an oncogeni...

A great #BARC2024 . A day of talks, Q&A, discussion, posters, catching up with the #RNA community, and meeting new colleagues. Thanks to all the volunteers, sponsors, and to #RNAsociety for supporting trainee awards! and to the speakers and presenters for your sharing work! and to the organizers💥

Great work from Gloria Brar’s group on the role of paralogous RNA helicases in the heat shock response. Surprising increase in growth at high temperature and impact of a short motif! Also important implications of the role of biomolecular condensation. Awesome www.cell.com/cell-reports...

Analyses of translation factors Dbp1 and Ded1 reveal the cellular response to heat stress to be separable from stress granule formation
Kuwayama and Powers et al. reveal differences in function for two related RNA remodelers. Dbp1 is poor at stimulating translation, but, when expressed instead of Ded1, it prevents cells from halting growth upon heat stress. This depends on a short disordered Ded1 region but not stress granule formation or reduced translation.
