🧬 Small RNAs, big potential. Deputy Director Andrea Kasinski and team work with microRNAs to develop new #cancer therapies. Kasinski's lab developed a molecule that reduced the size of breast and lung cancer tumors in mice. purdue.link/ak-miRNA #cancerresearch Purdue University

Very excited to share our paper out today in Nature Methods, introducing TREX (Targeted RNase H-mediated Extraction of X-linked RBPs), a novel approach to reveal proteins that bind to any region of any RNA molecule of interest in living cells🧪: rdcu.be/dyZ2c (1/10)

It was an absolute honor to spend the last two days at my alma mater 👩‍🎓 with my PhD mentor Haian Fu and Dr. Yue Feng, who invited me. Emory truly is an outstanding institute that I was blessed to complete my degree at. Thanks to the Department of Chemical Biology & Pharmacology.

A new pre-print from ⁦⁦⁦Martin Simard⁩ reported a co-chaperone, DNJ-12, which interacts with ALG-1 and loads several specific miRNAs. Very cool! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
