New paper alert! We used optical tweezers to resolve heterogenous folding/unfolding pathways of repeat expanded huntingtin mRNA, revealing how hairpin slippage can seed inter-strand base pairing and promote aggregation. Congrats @NothinBut_Brett! 👏👏

Starting the semester strong with a hike with my graduate students at Great Falls, VA! It doesn't hurt, also, that BSF (@usisraelbsf) is funding our project on PKA RIbeta in collaboration with the Ilouz lab @RIlouz

Happy to share our last single molecule PKA work published @jbiolchem. Congrats @amy_chau, Katie, Dominic, Lihui and @good_lydia. COVID-19 removed us from the lab for months but we took action and did computational work included here with experiments!
