Indeed..! It was fascinating to unravel the global regulation mediated by a small RNA during LCFA metabolism.

Our collaborative work with Rachna Chaba is out! Long-chain fatty acids fuel E. coli but cause redox stress; we showed that CpxAR two-component system balances this by suppressing LCFA metabolism!

Small RNAs are key players in how bacteria adapt to changing environments. Tools like #RILseq uncover complex sRNA-RNA networks, paving the way for innovative approaches to fight bacterial infections.

Many congratulations to all the authors for such a wonderful and interesting study! 😊

Happy to share our latest work published in PNASNews In collaboration with Yanjie Chao , we uncovered an RNase III-processed sRNA, ManS, that orchestrates sialic acid metabolism in Salmonella enterica during gut colonization. Link: doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2…

Congratulations Prof Chaba!

Many many congratulations Dr. Megha and Prof Rachna. 😇

Heartiest congratulations Dr. Singh and Prof Chaba! 😇

Congratulations, Deeptodeep! It was truly a wonderful meeting! Great science, wonderful community, and amazing hospitality! A big thanks to the organizers Bose Institute Kaustuv Sanyal Smarajit Polley #JayantaMukhopadhyay #PallobKundu

Looking forward to the event!

Our fellow for the day: Why Rachna Chaba looks into TB? Fats are a rich source of energy for bacteria. However, work in her laboratory over a decade in the model bacterium E. coli showed that feasting on fats can actually harm bacteria until they use certain defense mechanisms.

An exciting opportunity for aspiring researchers! If you’re passionate about bacterial genetics and physiology. Don’t miss this chance to apply! #PhD #Researchopportunity #academictwitter

What an amazing review! Congratulations 🥳

Another great piece of science out there, pushing the boundaries of sugar acid metabolism! Amazing work from the lab #microbiology #chabalab

Fascinating findings on sugar acid metabolism and its regulators. So proud of an amazing work! 😎 a big congratulations!

A copper shield! Interesting. 🧐

It was a pleasure to host Rachna Chaba at Department of Biotechnology, IIT Hyderabad, two years after our Ist collaboration chat on X! Her talk on sugar acid metabolism in enteric bacteria was a hit. My lab folks also pitched their projects for her feedback. Super excited about the ongoing collaborative ideas!!
