Our study describing how the lifetime, in addition to structure, of an RNA regulates its activity is online @nchembio. An amazing collaboration between @qizhanglab, @LazearLab, and @aFrankLab. Congratulations to @RheseThompson, @edgar_faison, and the team. nature.com/articles/s41589-0…
Huge congratulations to Hashim M. Al-Hashimi @ColumbiaBiochem for receiving The 2024 Laukien Prize @ENC_Conf !!!
Our study describing the development and application of PD-MaP for probing protonation-coupled RNA conformational ensembles is online @J_A_C_S. Congratulations @edgar_faison and @amritanalla !pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…
Our department is hiring! Up to two open rank tenured/tenure-track faculty positions in Molecular Biology and Biochemistry. The priority deadline for application is September 25, 2023. Please visit the following UNC-Chapel Hill website for details. unc.peopleadmin.com/postings…
Just had an inspiring read of an amazing perspective by Hashim Al-Hashimi @ColumbiaBiochem, making the case that biomolecules are computational machines. When DNA polymerase can be reduced into lines of code with conformational states being a form of memory, how far can we go?

Interested in how some of the first polymers were formed? @KnightGroupUNC has an open postdoctoral position in our exciting new Keck funded collaboration with @QiZhangLab searching for some of the origins of peptide formation. Apply/contact if interested! chemistryjobs.acs.org/job/34…
Thanks to the W. M. Keck Foundation for supporting our team! Thanks to many UNC colleagues for their help! We are also looking for postdoctoral researchers for this project (one in @QiZhangLab and Carter lab and one in @abigailsknight lab). Please reach out if you are interested!
Congrats BCBP FACULTY Charlie W Carter and Qi Zhang on the KECK AWARD and Abby Knight of @uncchemistry !
