Ever wondered how RNAPII navigates the 3D nuclear space to find gene targets? The C-terminal domain is its GPS! We've traced this incredible journey using single-molecule tracking, don't miss our findings! 🧬🛰️🔬biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Transcription regulation in plants vs. animals - same-same or different? We show in a new preprint that in plants, regulatory sequences next to the TSS are position-dependent - as opposed to animal enhancers which are position-independent (1/6) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Very excited to share our work and my first ever paper!🎉🎉 Super grateful to Yoav Voichek (plant-trx.bsky.social) and many other people for making it happen Take a look to read about our findings in the cell cycle status of developing gametes Plant Physiology academic.oup.com/plphys/advance…

New preprint! Engineered bacteria launch and control an oncolytic virus biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Exciting work from Zak Singer jpabon & lab engineering bacteria to deliver viral RNAs that launch viral spread. We also engineer the virus to depend on bacteria. Congrats all!

Great work by @handlerkristina !

(1/13) Exciting findings from our latest study, now published in Nucleic Acids Res as a breakthrough article! academic.oup.com/nar/advance-ar…

Finally out!!! Vladimir Mindel I was so lucky to work with you.

I really like the simple model for Transcription Factor function: "DNA binding - Mediator recruitment - Gene activation." But this elegant and systematic study from Vladimir Mindel +Sagie Brodsky, Barkai Lab provides an exciting fresh perspective. Highly recommended!

Our latest research on position-dependent transcriptional regulatory sequences in plants is now published! 🌿 More details in our preprint tweet and in this thread! 👇 nature.com/articles/s4158… 📄🔍 (1/5)

Looking for an exciting science project ? My friend and colleague Sebastian Springer is offering a PhD position on the intersection between immunology and virology. Join is bustling lab and benefit from great mentorship and insight: drive.google.com/file/d/1pbu0Z_…

Paper alert: Congratulations to PhD student, now Dr. Aryeh Solomon for this great work, published eLife - the journal. Can a BCG vaccine also protect from Gram-negative infection? #TrainedImmunity Thanks also to long time collaborator Mihai Netea and other friends. doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…

My recommended read for the weekend. Thanks for this inspiring commentary!
