check out our preprint on orphan quality control via C-degrons, by what seems to be a very promiscuous ubiquitin ligase! awesome work by edwin and susmitha shankar biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…

The day has come when I can finally introduce my new favorite gene to everyone! Everyone, this is SOA. SOA's favorite spot is the X chromosome, so it should feel right at home here on X (formerly known as Twitter)🧬 Read the full article here: nature.com/articles/s4158…

On that note, if you're looking for a PhD position and are curious to discover more about SOA, we are recruiting a PhD student to explore the exact mechanism of how SOA brings about hyperactivation of X-linked genes. Apply until November 8th! x.com/imbmainz/statu…

TEs ⚔️ ZFPs Transposons & zinc finger proteins are battling across the animal universe! The battle is particularly fierce in 🦑🐙 and 🐠🐟 with armies of up to 3,000 ZFPs! Psyched about this work led by super talented Jonathan Wells who is on the job market! 🎣 Don’t miss him!

We are excited share our latest work! We designed a viral gene against HSV-1 and showed that it spread efficiently during infection in mice

Can toddlers fake “the sweetspot”?!?! “the sweetspot” = too sick for daycare, too healthy to be quiet at home, a.k.a. feverish running nose. 😂

Yesterday we had a BOMBastic Seminar and Mentoring Session with Harmit S. Malik. Thank you so much for visiting US in Mainz! Happy to had the chance of organizing this together with Stela Kanta ☺️

We had a blast! Proud and thankful for Jessica Leismann & Stela Kanta for organizing it around the defusal of a 500kg bomb from WW2 just around the corner of the institute. Big thanks to Harmit S. Malik for all science, advice and unfazed charisma despite the potentially 🧨 outcome

One of the most memorable moments of my PhD was meeting Harmit S. Malik. We had the best time organizing this event together with Jessica Leismann. And the talk was definitely a blast🧨💣 Thank you all for being there, and thank you, Harmit S. Malik, for visiting us! IMB Mainz

Congratulations Cristina Policarpi, Jamie Hackett and team! And a giant thank you for making the MS (and tools) available to the community through bioRxiv. Had we waited for peer review to see this, parts of our work would’ve been delayed by more than a year!

It’s my pleasure to share that our latest manuscript is out now in Nature Biotechnology. This has been an incredibly exciting project! We describe BreakTag, an NGS-based tool for the rapid characterization of CRISPR nucleases and off-target activity. nature.com/articles/s4158…
