Just look at how the rate of increase in life expectancy has been dropping in this country. And it’s not just since COVID/2020. The decline seemed to start around 2010… weird, that.

🚨New analysis from @royalsociety
UK visa costs for researchers:
🫣 21x higher than France (Talent passport for researchers)
😱34x higher than Germany (Scientific visa)
😬Have increased by 126% since 2019 while other countries have made theirs cheaper

You know those times when you come out of a theater and just know that film would win Best Picture…this is the human genetics equivalent. I’m not prone to hyperbole but cannot remember the last time I was this impressed by a genetics manuscript. Congratulations!

Excited to share this discovery: Huntington's disease is a DNA process for almost all of a cell's life. Inherited HD alleles are innocuous, just unstable – CAG repeats slowy expand throughout life, acquiring toxicity only when quite long (>150 CAGs). biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Congratulations to @bmss_official , @PerditaB and everyone involved in making this possible!
A much needed investment into UK's mass spectrometry infrastructure.
Thank you, @The_MRC @UKRI_News !

£49.35m to support the Critical Mass UK (C-MASS) project, co-delivered with @EPSRC, that will develop a UK-wide hub-and-spoke infrastructure to advance our capability in mass spectrometry.

Phosphorylation based signalling is still quite understudied despite a general perception that it is well understood. A great study here measuring specificity for human serine/threonine kinases

So sad to hear the news of the passing of my mnd hero Doddie Weir. I'm sorry to say, how many more warriors die before this stupid government give the 50m they said they would give. I'm absolutely gutted to see my friendly giraffe die. You are the reason for being so positive RIP

Our paper on sgRNA profiling of #SARSCov2 @nanopore @NetworkArtic genomes using periscope showing lineage specific changes is finally out! We find a striking increase in sgRNA abundance in B.1.1.7 infections and a potential sgRNA for ORF9b! 💥 nature.com/articles/s42003-0… short 🧵1/3

DHHC enzymes catalyze protein palmitoylation in thousands of substrates. We used a combination of crystallography, computational simulations and biochemistry to present the first structure of a precatalytic complex of human DHHC20 with palmitoyl CoA.

Proteomics neurobiology are powerful combo! Here we describe a multimodal (APEX, APMS) and dynamic (stimulation, mutants) PPI analysis for tau that enhances our understanding of both tau molecular biology as well as clinical protein profiles from AD patients.
We’re excited to share our latest research out in @CellCellPress TODAY!
Using APEX and AP-MS proteomics, we mapped Tau interactomes that were modified by neuronal activity and FTD mutations in hiPSC-derived neurons.
