Love a good review title pun!
Great review on PPE proteins in Mtb virulence from @samanthabell.

This beautiful, mechanistic work provides a fantastic example of how RNA binding proteins and alternative splicing guide immunity. Congrats to @takarginov, who has had my favorite poster at RNA meetings for several years now ;)

The latter part of my thesis work on RNA binding proteins and T cells is out in @ScienceMagazine ! Here we find that one of the most conserved elements in the genome helps determine how your immune system responds to pathogens. #ScienceResearch

Excited to share the labs’ recent preprint!
We and others have shown that the #Parkinsons protein #LRRK2 plays an important role in regulating mitochondrial health and immune responses.
But does it work the same way in all immune cells?

This may mean that CNS-targeted LRRK2 inhibitors could do double duty in restoring immune cell homeostasis in the brain.
It also highlights the complexity of mitochondrial-driven immune responses and the need to study immune protein function in multiple cell types!

It’s not an RNA gala without a performance on the dance floor from Luhrmann and Beggs. Hope everyone had a fantastic meeting. See you in San Diego for #RNA25!

I finally have an answer to the age old question of “if you got a tattoo, what would you get?” @RNASociety
Excited for Day 4 of #RNA24
