Really great collaboration with the lab of Ivana Gasic to figure out the mechanisms controlling selective tubulin mRNA degradation!


After six fantastic years at @MRC_LMB, I'm returning to Denmark to join Molekylærbiologi - Molecular Biology! Starting August 2024, we'll combine biochemistry, cryoEM, and single-molecule imaging to study how DNA damage is recognized and repaired. sites.google.com/view/alconlab


A reminder that our new lab at Molekylærbiologi - Molecular Biology has a fully funded postdoc position available. Our group integrates biochemistry, cryoEM, and single-molecule imaging to explore the mechanisms of DNA repair complexes. 🧬🔬 sites.google.com/view/alconlab/… Please share with your colleagues!


Ready for this week's RNA Club? This Thursday we'll be hosting Markus Höpfler and Murat Sunbul at the Cambridge Biochemistry (Sanger Building) for some interesting talks! Hope to see you there! 🍻🍕🧬Thanks to The RNA Society Lexogen 2BScientific Cambridge Bioscience


Looking forward to being Cambridge RNA Club club again!

Finally out! We identify the first regulatory step in the tubulin autoregulation pathway: TTC5 is sequestered by free αβ-tubulins to prevent it from ribosome binding. Thanks for a great collaboration with Ivana Gasic and Zhewang Lin! nature.com/articles/s4146…

Lab’s first paper is out 🥳🍾! We reveal how tubulins regulate the stability of their mRNAs via reversible sequestration of TTC5. Bravo A. Batiuk and all coauthors! Markus Höpfler Ana Almeida Lila Oscar UNIGE_en Nature Communications 👇 doi.org/10.1038/s41467…

Looking forward to sharing and discussing my work Cambridge RNA Club club today! See you later!


Apply until 12th of January for the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) international PhD programme! There will be 2 positions in my group with a focus on novel mechanisms of mRNA decay in the context of microtubule regulation. Please RT! crg.eu/en/content/tra…
