Yeast Xrn1-sensitive unstable lncRNAs contain ribosome-associated small ORFs and are pervasively translated before being degraded by NMD, while lncRNA-derived peptides could exist in the cell. bit.ly/4bu93lu

#RNACanada2024 has reached its end with an extraordinary gala dinner at the Canadian Museum of History, and last sessions with keynote presentation by Lynne Maquat on the next morning. What a great meeting !

1/8. 𝐧𝐜𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐬 often fly under the radar... but they're vital in bacteria-phage conflicts & beyond. Curious 𝙬𝙝𝙮!? 🤔 Here, we dive into their immune roles, plasticity, and discuss their hidden potential! 🧬🚀 🔗:cell.com/trends/microbi…

very happy to present our latest work on the diversity of RiboSeq signals associated with canonical and noncanonical translation! An almost 100% @i2bc paper with Chris Papadopoulos and 🧬olivier namy🔬🧪🧫 published in Genome Biology ! genomebiology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

#RNAsequencing uncovers how #mRNA caps protect genetic messages and what happens when they’re removed, offering insights into #gene regulation and disease. - Institut Curie rna-seqblog.com/transcriptome-…

Thrilled and proud to see the "mRNA Decay: Methods & Protocols" book published. A great and enriching first editorial experience. Thanks to the wonderful #RNA colleagues who contributed to it. Please share ! link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9…

We are recruiting an enthusiastic engineer to identify isoform-splicing regulation in the developing Drosophila embryo with transcriptomics & genetics in our lively team in @IGMM_Montpel Please reshare! #jobOffer #RNA #hox #Drosophila #Nanopore #splicing ->emploi.cnrs.fr/Offres/CDD/UMR…

We are delighted to announce our next RNA Society Member Spotlight! rnasociety.memberclicks.net/takuma-okabe Takuma Okabe is a PhD. student in the Department of Life Science and Medical Bioscience at Waseda University in Tokyo. In this RNA spotlight, written by Dr. Maxime Wery and edited by Mai

Looking forward

Modulation of protein activity by small RNA base pairing internal to coding sequences dlvr.it/TKVcJv

Now online! m6A alters ribosome dynamics to initiate mRNA degradation dlvr.it/TKcRnJ

Finally. Such a crazy week.

UPF2 dynamically interacts with RNA and remodels structured RNA. UPF3B stabilizes UPF1-UPF2‘s RNA association, while UPF2 supports UPF1’s RNA unfolding activity, corroborating mRNA degradation. bit.ly/3SD2rtj

Ever wonder why tRNAs have introns? Our brand new PNAS paper suggests it may be because a tRNA methylase needs the intron in tyrosine tRNA. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

We are delighted to announce our next RNA Society Member Spotlight! rnasociety.org/dr--simone-det… Dr. Simone Detassis is a scientist and postdoctoral researcher at the University of Trento in Italy.

We are delighted to our next RNA Society Member Spotlight! rnasociety.org/dr--francesca-… Dr. Francesca Aguilo is an Associate Professor in the Department of Molecular Biology at Umeå University, Sweden, where her group studies RNA modifications such as m6A.

Thrilled to announce that after 15 years at Curie Institute, I will join Sorbonne University in September as a Professor in Molecular Biology. I will pursue my research on post-transcriptional RNA metabolism with Dominique Weil, at the Institute of Biology Paris-Seine (IBPS).
