Read our latest story on the circles of life 😊
Nice news story about our recent research into the mythical RNA world, where we have explored the structure of the (proposed) central player: the RNA replicase. Thanks to @EmilLK2, @mcrae_ewan, @PhilHolliger and coauthors for making the research possible. sciencenews.dk/en/rna-resear

Det har faglige konsekvenser, nÄr man reducerer uddannelser fra 2 til 1 Är. Det skal #dkpol vide, nÄr man laver sÄ gennemgribende indgreb pÄ #DKuni, som @regeringDK lÊgger op til. @kristian_lauta med vigtige input til @folketinget's Uddannelses- og Forskningsudvalg. #uddpol

I was very pleased when @EmilLK2 and @PhilHolliger approached me, wanting to know the structure of RNA mincircles as they undertake rolling circle amplification. Here is the result of our simulations, now published in @eLife :
All steps of a viroid-like replication cycle can be catalyzed by RNA alone. elifesciences.org/articles/7

New paper from my group "Rollling circle synthesis catalyzed by RNA": elifesciences.org/articles/7
. Led by x.com/EmilLK2 and a great collaboration with x.com/ANoyLab in York. We show that RNA alone can catalyze all the steps of a viroid-like replication cycle.
