“My CV makes it look easy, but it hasn’t always been. For every paper or grant I have submitted, 80-90 % of them have been rejected, which is why I tell my students they have to love the pursuit of the question.” -@CDCDirector @RWalensky vogue.com/article/dr-rochell…

Watch RAS wiggle! Here is our latest structure showing dynamics of a KRAS mutant found in RASopathies - KRAS P34R (mutation in red). Interesting connection with heterotrimeric G proteins. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/….

This past week has challenged each of us in unique ways, but we can all share the common experience of confronting unexpected challenges.
We also share the truth that we can’t do this alone. Don’t be afraid to ask for help, and don’t be afraid to offer help to others.

To all my macrophage friends: check out this awesome work by @ashishkulkarny and co-workers. Dual‐inhibitor‐loaded nanoparticles target M2 macrophages and simultaneously inhibit CSF1R and SHP2 pathways to repolarize TAMs.

Clinically, this suggests that this resistance can be potentially overcome by targeting the specific RTK resistance mechanism — or perhaps by targeting nodes of convergence like MEK or ERK or SHP2, which would allow treatment of more disparate resistance mechs w fewer drugs

Happy #PhytochemicalFriday! Today: allicin, a (zwitterionic!) compound from garlic. Normal garlic cells contain alliin (an amino acid-like compound), but crushing garlic exposes alliin to an enzyme that converts it into allicin - the major contributor to the aroma of fresh garlic

A paper recently published in @nature from @liugroup discloses a ‘prime’ gene-editing system many years in the making. It has already been snapped up as the key founding intellectual property for Cambridge, Massachusetts-based startup Prime Medicine

Gene editing enters ‘prime’ time. Early results suggest that prime editors are cleaner than CRISPR–Cas9 and more versatile than base editors, but many questions remain nature.com/articles/d41587-0…
