10th century incense recipe found in @ParkerLibCCCC, colleagues/students from @CorpusCambridge made it, in chapel, giving @MattBullimore something special for year ahead. Reminds me how cool/bizarre it can be to work at a 650+ year old institution π

Scientists and historians team up to make the 10th Century recipe, which "smells like Christmas".

Check out our latest paper where we identify a new C-terminal export signal in flagellar Type III secretion substrates which provides further evidence against a subunit capture/chain mechanism for flagellar assembly.

Many bacterial pathogens utilize T3SS to inject virulence proteins (effectors) into host cells or to assemble flagella on the bacterial cell surface. Bacterial flagella present a paradigm for how...

Evolution's secret to C4 photosynthesis also includes translation! π± Our work reveals how translational control of photosynthesis genes adapts to light in C3 rice and C4 sorghum. @CRAGENOMICA @jmhibber @TranslatingRNA @Thepallavisingh @TinaSchreier
biorxiv.org
C4 photosynthesis allows increased efficiency and has evolved in more than sixty-six plant lineages. Underpinning this repeated appearance of the C4 pathway is a major transcriptional reprogramming...
