Highlights the awesome power of NMR and cryo-EM combined to make the "invisible" visible.

Happy to be at the #RNA2022 #RNA22 @RNASociety meeting to share our 7SK @AuroraYuanYang and telomerase work. Check out @Baocheng_Liu 's talk C11-10 and @YaoHe_YH 's poster PS3-496 today for telomerase. Also had a beautiful hike in Boulder!

Happy😊to share our work on human telomerase with shelterin protein TPP1 @Nature. Our cryo-EM structures define the determinants of telomerase recruitment by TPP1, TERT–TER interactions, and structural basis of telomerase inhibitor & telomeropathies. rdcu.be/cLheF

Super excited to share our work on 7SK core RNP structures and conformational switching published @MolecularCell. These cryo-EM structures are the first for 7SK RNP, providing structural and mechanistic insights for 7SK RNP assembly and P-TEFb regulation. authors.elsevier.com/c/1ena7…

Beautifully written review by Michael Stone on the recent cryo-EM structures of telomerase from our lab and Nguyen's lab.
Cryo-EM structures tell a tale of two telomerases: A News & Views by Michael D. Stone and colleagues @ucsc discusses two recent papers in @nature reporting #telomerase #cryoEM structures by @KellyTHD_Nguyen and @FeigonLab nature.com/articles/s41594-0…

Congratulations to @yaqiangwang, @MGJones13, Lukas, @HeSong05808037 @uclachem on our new publication in PNAS. Our study shows that TERT TEN and TRAP motif have coevolved and are hallmarks of functional telomerase. doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2011684…
