Check out our latest research on stress-induced small proteins @scisignal Congratulations to @vsangeev @premal_shah and all the co-authors 🎉

What are the roles of small proteins in #Ecoli?
Using ribosome profiling, a team studies small proteins induced by magnesium starvation and show that one named YoaI activates a two-component system linked to osmotic stress response. @ScarletSam scim.ag/3HEwnTT

So excited that my brother and friend @vsangeev's PhD work made it to Science!
Congratulations to Yadavalli lab led by our vibrant PI : @ScarletSam

New work this week expands scientific knowledge of the small proteins that coordinate stress responses in bacteria, such as #Ecoli, and suggests that cellular stress networks are more interconnected than was previously thought. @ScarletSam @Waksman_Inst scim.ag/3HEwnTT

Check out this new review from our lab @NCIResearchCtr, led by postdoc @kptsilva ! We explore the varied mechanisms by which gene amplifications lead to antibiotic resistance @npjamr
14 Nov 2024
Publication alert 🚨: Our new review article on antibiotic resistance via distinct gene amplifications is out now in npj antimicrobials and resistance!!!

Help please
Dear colleagues working at universities in the United States, I need your help!
I am making a list of fellowships for international graduate students (people who are not US citizens or permanent residents).
Any recommendations?
* I will share the final version of this list

Do you like small proteins? Perhaps you need a general overview of their function. If so, check out our review (@RileeZeinert @storzlab) - annualreviews.org/content/jo…

It’s RARE for 3 good things to happen the same day - 1. My student @AdeleyeSamuelA’s paper got accepted 🎉, 2. My other student @vsangeev won a poster prize 🎉, and 3. I received the 2024 Young Investigator Award at the NJ ASM Theobald Smith Society symposium 🎉 Happy Friday!
