Many congrats to Francois Fuks and the whole team @FuksLab for this fantastic landmark story! Check this out!
Very excited to share our recent paper in @Cell, revealing an elegant mechanism where RNA modification and DNA methylation work together to regulate gene expression and influence differentiation.

I’m thrilled to share this story from @Mendell_lab and Jan Erzberger labs, led by postdoc extraordinaire Xiaoqiang Zhu! We showed that in addition to their canonical decoding function, tRNAs play a key role in regulating mRNA stability during translation. https://t.co/gXsJo1Mc1B

The CCR4-NOT complex is a major regulator of eukaryotic messenger RNA (mRNA) stability. Slow decoding during translation promotes association of CCR4-NOT with ribosomes, accelerating mRNA degradati...

Transfer RNAs at the heart of melanoma resistance to targeted therapies https://t.co/75aoeSFFIG via @universiteliege
@pierreclose1 @GIGA_ULiege @frsFNRS @WELRI_asbl
welri.org
The mechanism involved in the resistance of certain melanomas to targeted therapies is based on a change in their protein production, involving certain transfer RNAs and the VARS enzyme.

Thank you @NatureCellBio for the post and the N&V. This is amazing! Very proud of the last paper of our lab from @hachem_najla 👇 https://t.co/8vuMQDD93h Thanks to the whole team! @GIGA_ULiege @ULiegeRecherche @FondationFcc @FondationLeon @frsFNRS @WELRI_asbl
💫NEW: @pierreclose1 & co show that MAPK therapy upregulates valine aminoacyl-#tRNA synthetase and alters fatty acid oxidation, providing a resistance mechanism that may be therapeutically targeted. #melanoma #TherapyResistance
