Surprising to see how widespread effects these drugs have on the health system and the economy . reuters.com/breakingviews/…

This paper from the Lorenz lab uses 4 different Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC) #ChemicalProbes (among others) to ask questions about human neuronal development. Exactly the reason we made our probes openly available. So people can use them to do cool things! nature.com/articles/s4158…

A new study demonstrates for the first time the ability of Huntingtin protein to directly bind to RNA species. Read our preprint and learn more about the role of a specific RNA, called NEAT1, in connecting with Huntingtin within cells. 📰 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We finally know why humans don't have tails: a tail of transposable elements and splicing! livescience.com/health/genetic…

Excited to share our new story on PRMT5 regulating Huntingtin(HTT) mRNA processing. We thought PRMT5 was regulating HTT splicing but it turned out to be intronic polyadenylation resulting in premature transcription termination of the HTT mRNA. I'll post a separate tweetorial.

Every lab has had experience with bad antibodies. They are a big waste of time, money and lab resources and lead to false and irreproducible results. Initiatives such as the SGCs YCharOS help pinpoint the good ones and will save time, money and resources.
