Thrilled to see my postdoc work @AdelmanLab on the Integrator (INT) now out @CellCellPress:We found that INT deficiency allows immature and unlicensed RNAPII to precociously enter genes. This immature RNAPII can transcribe short genes but terminates prematurely in long genes

A new study shows mutations in the Integrator complex — linked to cancers, blood disorders, neurodevelopmental abnormalities, and other diseases — cause chronic stress in cells bit.ly/4mIdFdF

Amazing to see how this work connects defects in transcription elongation to chronic stress signaling and disease! Could targeting dsRNA or ISR pathways offer new therapeutic strategies for conditions caused by INT mutations? Fascinating implications for RNA biology and medicine!

Very excited to share that my thesis work is out in Molecular Cell! We trained a Structure and Omics informed Classifier (SPOC) to score binary AlphaFold multimer (AF-M) predictions by structural quality and consistency with experimental omics datasets. cell.com/molecular-cell/full…

Very proud to have been awarded an ERC Consolidator grant for research on neuronal RNAs! Rock on, team!
Wow. Congratulations to Valérie Hilgers (@hilgers_lab) 🎉! She has been awarded the prestigious ERC Consolidator Grant by @ERC_Research! More on her project on alternative processing of RNA molecules in neurons here: ie-freiburg.mpg.de/5985387/2…

Looking for an exciting #PhD project in #molecularBiology? How about this question: what determines a gene's end? Most human genes have alternative ends, the choice of which is important for health and disease. Yet we still don't understand how this choice is made!

Happy to announce the final version of our paper is now available @NatureComms! nature.com/articles/s41467-0… Thank you to co-authors Kavya, @geoffmnelson @hdzomer, Debarun, Irene, Reza, Huanyu, @AdelmanLab and Prabu for a great collaboration of transcription and development expertise!
I am excited to share our new preprint! We comprehensively analyze gene expression in male germ cells to reveal transcriptional pausing is required for murine spermatogenesis. Thanks and congrats to my co-authors @hdzomer @geoffmnelson @AdelmanLab, Irene, Debarun, and Prabu!!

My RNA didn’t degrade, it just underwent a rapid unscheduled disassembly into nucleotides !!

Great to see the conclusions from a recent paper from our lab (Stein et al 10.1016/j.molcel.2022.10.004) so nicely recapitulated in a different system !!!

So excited to share that my thesis work is out now at @MolecularCell! Karen @AdelmanLab and I show that U1 snRNP increases RNA Pol II elongation rate within AT-rich introns, thereby reducing the likelihood of Pol II termination or arrest. Highlights below! authors.elsevier.com/c/1gobY…
