Grad students, here is an outline of how to give your first thesis committee meeting: 1-What is your question? 2-Why significant? 3-Overview of what is known and gaps in knowledge 4-Approach 5-Progress or challenges 6-Future plans Remember, it's a conversation not an exam!

Feelin froggy!

Come work with us on the biochemistry and enzymology (and/or biology) of Protein Arginine Methyltransferases. Major cancer relevance, basic studies. Phase separation? Who knows... #PRMTs #postdoc #sciencejob jobrxiv.org/job/albert-ein… DM me or email in ad

Story about the 5 year journey to a new preprint from our lab: Transcriptomic and proteomic regulation through abundant, dynamic, and independent arginine methylation by Type I and Type II PRMTs biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (Only a few of the contributors are on twitter) /1

Nucleolar RNA Pol II!

I am doc, post doc 😎

From Disorder to Dynamo: Glutamylation's Role in Supercharging Histone Chaperones I am thrilled to share our latest and groundbreaking work on histone chaperone glutamylation. Find our preprint here biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Thank you David Shechter and others for your contributions!

Ever wonder why histone chaperones have acidic tails? Our new preprint reveals they mimic DNA to regulate chromatin! Glutamate-glutamylation enhances their mimicry. Dive in: doi.org/gsrvkj lead by Benjamin Lorton Chris Warren Humaira #biorxiv 1/7
