Scientist fascinated by how noncoding RNAs impact biomedicine. Energy from family&friends. Love #noncodingRNA, believe in #RNAtherapy, live in @CIMA_unav

More than 2700 3′UTRs are highly conserved. These 3′UTRs are essential components in mRNA templates, as their deletion decreases protein activity without changing protein abundance. Highly conserved 3′UTRs help the folding of proteins with long IDRs. https://t.co/b6hd4AlIoX

More than 2,700 human mRNA 3′UTRs have hundreds of highly conserved (HC) nucleotides, but their biological roles are unclear. Here, we show that mRNAs with HC 3′UTRs mostly encode proteins with long...

Prkra dimer senses double-stranded RNAs to dictate global translation efficiency
cell.com
Prkra serves as a primary dsRNA sensor in pluripotent cells, restricting RNA virus replication. By dimerizing through dsRBD3, it sequesters eIF2 complexes from the translation machinery and compens...

After 21 years at my dream job, I’m very sad to announce my early retirement from the National Institutes of Health. My life’s work has been to scientifically study how our food environment affects what we eat, and how what we eat affects our physiology. Lately, I’ve focused on

Don't think I've ever met scientists as terrified/depressed as I've seen in the US this week (and I live in a war zone).

If you work in the area of the TGF-beta pathway , consider to send your publication to this special issue , where Prof. Gianluigi Giannelli and I are guest editors. TGF-β Signaling in Immunity, Inflammation, Fibrosis and Cancer https://t.co/wS74yjMPuF

And super nice number 2 The integrated stress response regulates 18S nonfunctional rRNA decay in mammals: Molecular Cell
cell.com
To maintain translational fidelity, cells degrade decoding-incompetent ribosomes through the 18S nonfunctional rRNA decay (NRD) pathway. Coria et al. demonstrate that the concerted actions of GCN2,...

Our updated preprint on the mechanism behind the 1st & only human disease linked to tissue-specific ribosome: fatal heart failure caused by RPL3L mutations. Very proud of this work led by the talented and fearless Michael Murphy @MMurphyCUNY—check out his thread for more details!
Excited to share our new preprint from the @wu_xuebing lab: https://t.co/qvJ1gdN7N3 In it, we identify a gain-of-toxicity mechanism in RPL3L-linked neonatal dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), challenging the idea that recessive diseases are primarily caused by loss-of-function.

Es inaceptable! @CienciaGob debe dar explicación detallada a @COSCEorg , que representa a un importantísimo número de sociedades científicas. Dónde ha ido el dinero que había reservado para esta convocatoria?
Ante la cancelación por parte del @CienciaGob de la convocatoria de ayudas a la IA, COSCE ha hecho público el siguiente comunicado en el que pedimos "Una explicación detallada y transparente sobre los motivos de dicha cancelación":

Could one envision a synthetic receptor technology that is fully programmable, able to detect diverse extracellular antigens – both soluble and cell-attached – and convert that recognition into a wide range of intracellular responses, from transgene expression and real-time
