Congratulations Vladimir on his exciting paper characterising Cap2 methylation! Read it here: nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
Had a wonderful time at @Tri_I_RNA symposium today! Congratulations as well to Qian and Maxim for their successful talks at the symposium!
Come hear our graduate students, Qian and Maxim, speak at the next Tri-I RNA symposium amongst other talented RNA researchers!
Calling all RNA enthusiasts! Our first event for 2024 will take place Thursday April 25 3-5 PM at RRL-120 (MSKCC, 430 E. 67th St). We have an exciting line-up of speakers with a happy hour to follow (flyer attached). Registration is free!

Congratulations to Dr. Qian Hou on her successful defense! Qian has developed, characterised, and optimised an entire suite of RNA tools during her PhD, ranging from aptamer design to gene expression modulators. Congratulations on your amazing achievements!
P.S. if you're interested in Qian's research, come join us at the @Tri_I_RNA symposium this Friday!
Congratulations to Dr. @MildredUnti on her successful defense! Millie has produced an incredible system for mRNA therapeutics, alongside several tools during her PhD. Congratulations on your incredible contributions to the mRNA sphere!
Do you want to know how much of your favourite m6A site is methylated? You can find out in *one day* using @AashiqHMirza's new method, SCARPET! Find out more about it here:

Surprising findings show phospholipids inside condensates throughout cells, not just in cell membranes, suggesting these compartments act as signaling centers, says Dr. Samie Jaffrey (@JaffreyLab) and colleagues.

Also tried some interesting fruits that many of us have never had before! Recognise anything? (No, the pineapple doesn't count!)
Our lab's very own @shino_murakami will be giving a talk about the interplay between ribosomes, amino acids, and m6A at the @Tri_I_RNA mini symposium! Sign up to hear from her and other amazing RNA scientists here: buytickets.at/triirnaclub/10…
Ever wondered what types of metabolites could be enriched in condensates? Check out Jason's study, which gives us a first peek into the condensate metabolome. Congratulations Jason!
A new paper from @JaffreyLab reveals that phospholipids can partition into protein condensates depending on the length of their acyl moiety and influence the properties of the condensates. Free to read link at rdcu.be/drmNe
Oh no, someone grab the RNaseZAP!!! Dressed up this year as the most terrifying class of enzymes, the RNases! Even our circRNA couldn't escape the jaws of the endonucleases😢
Happy Halloween everyone!

So excited to announce that my most recent work has been published. If you’re interested in genetically encoding circular mRNA, or packaging circular mRNA into virus-like particles for cell-type specific delivery, this paper is for you!
Online now! Highly efficient cellular expression of circular mRNA enables prolonged protein expression by Mildred J. Unti @MildredUnti, and Samie R. Jaffrey @JaffreyLab at @WeillCornell #resource dlvr.it/SxxYbc #chembiol
Interested in expressing your mRNAs for a longer time? Want to have cell-specific targeting AND prolonged protein expression? Check out how @MildredUnti achieved this with translating circular mRNAs! Congratulations Millie!

I had a blast presenting my work at the @NYCRNASymposium. Overall a fantastic event with great science.
Also out today: Ryan's study on how long mRNAs partition into stress granules via m6A. Congratulations Ryan! Check it out here: nature.com/articles/s41594-0…
Had a wonderful time at today's @NYCRNASymposium presenting our science and hearing everyone's great work on RNA! Thank you so much to the organisers for bringing the NYC (and greater!) RNA community together!
If the title of @MildredUnti's talk intrigues you, check out her preprint here! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
