Happy to announce first 2 trainees moving on to greener pastures (figuratively and literally, if you know California :D). First postdoc Minjie Zhang started his lab at Tianjin Medical University. First PhD Ryan Van Damme started at Pfizer to develop better mRNA vaccines.

Finally came out in PNAS: https://t.co/bVYXfetGvI We found more than 7000 interactions, but still only managed to scratch the surface of the snoRNA targetome and their functions.

We discovered a massive snoRNA-tRNA interaction network that controls tRNA modifications, stability, levels, and codon-biased dichotomous cellular states of proliferation and differentiation, partially solving the decades old orphan snoRNA problem. https://t.co/UZY5r231Is

snoRNAs are a large family of noncoding (nc)RNAs present across eukaryotes and archaea. While a subset of them guide 2’-O- methylation (Nm) and pseudouridylation (Ψ) of rRNAs and snRNAs, targets of...
