My country album on the way Beyoncé ain’t got shit on me. LOL 😆 gunitbrands.com
Interested in cell-surface (gasp) and glyco (gasp again) RNA? Very exciting research in this area! A great read from @raflynn5 and the group here:

Newest ChemRxiv preprint from the lab - "Colorimetric detection of fentanyl using a supramolecular displacement assay".
We wanted a simple way for first responders to identify unknown white powders without putting themselves at risk.

Its not as cool as RNA, but it turns out DNA can form structures too!
New paper from our lab w/ @TWBredy:
"G4-DNA is a critical molecular switch underlying the regulation of neuronal transcription"

How are timescales integrated in biology? Glucose fluxes (sec) are captured by transcription (hrs) — but how? Learn more in our new paper! #LLPS #timescales #proximity #spatiotemporal #condensate #metabolism #metabolon #glucose #glycolysis Thanks to @MDPIOpenAccess @UCI_SPPS

New paper out now in Nature Communications w/@TWBredy
"Fear extinction is regulated by the activity of long noncoding RNAs at the synapse"
Excited that this one is out now. There are plenty of new ncRNA roles to find OUTSIDE the nucleus!
