Check out preprint by graduate student Ryan Tibble showing how conformational control of mRNA decapping is coupled to the formation of biological condensates. Fantastic collaboration with @Jacek93345390 lab at Univ of Warsaw CeNT.

Congratulations to Joe Lobel for recent publication on how the mRNA decay factor Pat1 increases range of RNA substrates bound by the Lsm1-7 complex! Wishing Joe best of luck as he departs for work with @nickingolia. rnajournal.cshlp.org/content…
And see companion paper with structural work by @SamuelEButcher and colleagues suggesting a gated mechanism for Lsm1-7 access to internal RNA binding sites. Both studies point to Pat1 as the gatekeeper!
Check out our recent publication from the @JDGrossLab and @memerman lab. @nchesarino and I teamed up on this project describing the SIVrcm Vif structure and adaptations that allowed this Vif to antagonize human A3G. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
Congratulations to graduate student Joe Lobel for recent publication showing how intrinsically disordered regions of the scaffolding protein Pat1 contribute to mRNA decay! pnas.org/content/early/2019/…
