Our biophysical model in @PNASNews! ER export of collagen driven by a mechanochemical ratchet formed by expansion-contraction of intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) of TANGO1, and gradients of pH/HSP47. IDR “breathing” produces work with each breath.

Fantastic symposium by @StJudeStructBio! Incredible line-up of talks to facilitate new ideas and collaboration across platforms. Thank you to @Ineschen0,@m_madan_babu, and @KalodimosLab for an incredible meeting and the invite to present our latest cryoEM story from @LabSkiniotis
We are excited about the upcoming 2nd Structural and Computational Symposium, an in-person-only forum for open scientific exchange, with a diverse range of voices and perspectives.

👉 The @USPS has released new stamps showcasing the work of Igor Siwanowicz from @HHMIJanelia!
Siwanowicz’s confocal images will now grace the envelopes of millions of birthday cards, letters, and bills sent through the US mail. 📬 #LifeMagnifiedStamps

With a link to the article: science.org/doi/10.1126/scis… RNA helicases double as nucleotide exchange factors for casein kinase.
Kinases get NEFs: RNA helicases also function as nucleotide exchange factors for casein kinases #kinase @scisignal

This function of gene "bookmark" is independent of chromatin remodeling activity and only involves two components of a larger complex most of which dissociates from chromatin during cell division.

SMARCE1 and SMARCB1 are the components from the SWI/SNF complex that exhibit this bookmark function. Read more about it @Nature nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Follow along to learn about a chromosome position bias in CRISPR data #CRISPR
Tweetorial time! We @RecursionPharma mapped consequences of #CRISPR screening of >17K human genes, found a systematic bias confounding all CRISPR screens, traced its molecular cause, and propose a debiasing algorithm.

#AcademicTwitter any suggestions for a PC option that is like Curio by Zengobi for MAC? Looking for an application that will enable research boards connecting items from the literature (figures, titles, other interesting tidbits) to personal or shared notes.

A new mode of self-renewal: Stem cells that differentiate and then dedifferentiate. And this also causes gray hair. #stemcells @Nature #melanocyte nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Human ribosomes are slower and more accurate at mRNA translational than bacterial ribosomes. Check out this cool animation of structural insights into why. #scicomm @StJudeResearch @TheBlanchardLab stjude.org/media-resources/n…

Tweeting so I can remember about structure articles with embedded 3D viewing. Something I played with while an editor at Science Signaling micropublication.org/journal…

ALLERGIES IN BABIES DURING COVID LOCKDOWNS: Studies have shown diverse microbiome (exposure to different infectious agents) help decrease allergies, strengthen immunity- babies born during this time have less diverse gut microbiome, more allergies
