#authorinterview Harshita Dutta @Harshita1885 Ph.D. with Prof. Mahavir Singh lab @SinghMLab @MBU_IISc @iiscbangalore talks about her work on "Antitoxin RNA Pseudoknot Governs Toxin Regulation and Complex Formation" #IISc https://t.co/ztEqeAyLKG via @biopatrika

Congratulations to Prof Chakravortty and Debapriya for a wonderful story 🥳🥳👏👏. We are pleased to have been part of this study and contributed to its findings. Thank you for the opportunity!

IISc study shows how a pseudoknot structure in a small RNA molecule is critical for the formation of a bacterial toxin-antitoxin system, which plays a key role in its defense mechanisms. @SinghMLab @MBU_IISc Read: https://t.co/hekczQK4Qw #IIScresearch

Today is the birth anniversary of Prof GN Ramachandran, who founded the Molecular Biophysics Unit at IISc. His work on the collagen triple helix and the Ramachandran plot had a huge impact on structural biology. Photo courtesy: Manju Bansal

A previously unknown mechanism enables high-level antibiotic resistance in #MRSA through an alternative cell division pathway, researchers report in Science. The findings pave the way for more effective antibiotic interventions. 📄: https://t.co/mywdhoNkNK #SciencePerspective:

Just amazing 🥳👏

RNA wins again 😀👏!

We are excited to share that IISc is once again ranked the top university and research institution in the NIRF Rankings🎉 https://t.co/gA7qLyjAGo

Thanks to all the reviewers for their insightful and encouraging comments on Niranjan's thesis, and special thanks to Prof Krishna Mohan Poluri from @iitroorkee for conducting the thesis exam. @NIRANJANSAARC @MBU_IISc @iiscbangalore

Introducing Dr Niranjan Kumar, the latest PhD from our lab @MBU_IISc. Niranjan worked on understanding the structure and functions of an important disease-associated helicase called Rtel1. Congratulations and best wishes for your bright career ahead, Niranjan 🥳👏 @NIRANJANSAARC

Thanks to all the reviewers for their constructive comments on Devleena's thesis and special thanks to Prof Dasaradhi Palakodeti @DPalakodeti from @DBT_inStem for conducting the thesis exam. @D_Bandopadhyay @MBU_IISc @iiscbangalore

A new PhD minted at @SinghMLab 🥳. Devleena successfully defended her PhD thesis today. She worked on understanding the structure and functions of hnRNPK. Congratulations Dr Devleena Bandopadhyay @D_Bandopadhyay 🥳👏 @MBU_IISc @iiscbangalore
