Excited to see this work published! The humble proton may be small, but it’s impact on RNA conformational ensembles is mighty!
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…

Prices for radionuclides are astronomical! For 2022, the list prices have increased by 40-120% from 2021 and an as added gut punch, our academic discounts have gone down by 10%! Grant budgets haven't increased in years - wondering how we continue the science??🤔@PerkinElmer

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 !
Carolina Scientists awarded $1 million from the W.M. Keck Foundation to answer the age-old question: How did life on earth begin? @UNC @QiZhangLab go.unc.edu/Keck

1/n: Good morning esp. to our animal techs, who bled ~200 mice last yr on this day. It was the 2-wk post-prime timepoint, & we just had to peek at the antibody responses.
Do you think they knew those mice had gotten the vaccine they would themselves get only a year later? 💉 ❤️
Good morning esp. to @moderna_tx scientists who woke up a year ago to begin manufacturing clinical-grade mRNA-1273. The beauty of their platform and manufacturing expertise is that it only took 41 days to ship pure "ready-for-muscle" vaccine product. 💉❤️nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

A new paper from @qizhanglab determined that the protonated status of miR-21 precursor affects its maturation. Readable link at rdcu.be/b9c11. nature.com/articles/s41589-0…

Our study describing how the nucleosome prevents cGAS from recognizing self-DNA is online @ScienceMagazine. An amazing collaboration between @QiZhangLab and @McGintyLab. Congratulations to @JoshBoyerPhD, @catson4unc, @JoshuaStrauss5, and @UNCLineberger. science.sciencemag.org/conte…

Support free access to knowledge. Research funded by the public should be accessible to the public. Sequestration of these resources behind paywalls and academic licenses (from inherently racist/sexist/classist etc. institutions) is fundamentally unethical.
