Recent paper by Dr. Sankaranarayanan Rajan lab shows how the protein synthesis and proofreading machinery from bacterial and archaeal systems, evolved in their co-existence in plant cells, & are spatially separated in cytosol and organelles of the cells. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… More👇 1/n

Genetic testing promises to prevent many genetic diseases. But how exactly? Are there aspects of it that need improvement? Sara Sajjadi addresses these in her article: scitales.ccmb.res.in/will-i-be-heal… Lovely cover art by Sudipta Mondal, PhD Ashish Bihani CSIR, India #WorldSickleCellAwarenessDay

D Balasubramanian in collaboration with Sushil Chandani write on evolution of diff multicellular organisms, covering recent work from Sankaranarayanan lab. thehindu.com/sci-tech/scien…

🤩Just published my first review article 📃 I had so much fun making figures in ChimeraX Sankar's Lab CCMB #science #academics #reviewarticle

Finally got some time to play with #Blender! Followed Brady Johnston 's tutorial and here's a quick render (pdb-4nbi). Next up is to explore #MolecularNodes! 🤩 #b3d Sankar's Lab CCMB

Revamped & reclaimed!! Well done Mukul J S | ಮುಕುಲ್ ...Sankar's Lab

A fresh PhD with extensive expertise in cell biology and microscopy, and interested in the field of cytoskeletal regulation and structural biology can contact us for the recent DBT-RA ship call. We will be happy to host a passionate fellow.

Can't keep calm as Tejah Balantrapu & I present you, Hyderabad, Science and the City at Hyderabad Lit Fest. Arguably the 1st time we are celebrating art and science together in the spirit of understanding our city better. Check out what we bring on board via SciCity-Hyd: hydlitfest.org/hlf-2024-scien…

Thoroughly enjoyed reading this one— A refreshing blend of Review, Scientific Commentary and Historical Perspective genres. Huge thanks to the authors Pradeep kumar Sankaranarayanan Rajan for the opportunity to do the caricature! 😀📚🔬 Sankar's Lab CCMB
