Our latest work is out in @Nature today! Using smFRET, we directly visualized recruitment of the eIF4F complex to the 5' cap of eukaryotic mRNAs and formation of an activated mRNA. Our findings reveal new and surprising roles for each eIF4F component. 1/3 nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

1/ Preprint alert📢: Uncoupling the functional roles of Coronavirus Nsp1

Doubly excited because this work is based on our first Master's student to graduate from the lab, Emilie Bäumlin.

5/ We evaluated Nsp1 previously proposed Nsp1 inhibitors, Montelukast and Mitoxantrone, finding them ineffective against Nsp1’s ability to inhibit translation. 🚫

6/ We conclude by addressing the (co)-evolutionary interplay between Nsp1 and the 5'UTR from different Betacoronaviruses🦠

It's a very special day for me. I am so excited and grateful for this opportunity. My lab will study the role of mRNA translation in human immunity. Reach out if you're interested to join us. @GeneCenter_LMU @LMU_Muenchen

Is Science Direct down for everyone? Any ideas how to circumvent it when doing doi-based paper searches?

Today we report in @natBME the eePASSIGE system, which uses evolved and engineered recombinases and prime editing to integrate large gene-sized DNA cargoes into the mammalian genome in an efficient, precise, and targeted manner. (1/13)

We’re excited to share our study in @CellCellPress on the role of the MAP3 kinase ZAK in UV-induced apoptosis led by @2primehydroxyl! We studied cell signaling kinetics following UV-damage and found that ZAK drives apoptosis via ribosome collisions. cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092…

Check out our two new papers! We delevoped a method to follow individual translating ribosomes for hours in living cells, and discovered that ribosomes are great friends and help each other in problematic situations

Two new lab papers: In the first paper we develop Stopless-ORF circRNAs (socRNAs), a technique to measure translation by individual ribosomes with incredible precision. Amazing work jointly led by @MadernMax and @_SoraY.
