We study Post-transcription gene regulation
This week's #MicroscopyMonday shows HCR-based fluorescent in situ hybridization of human cells infected with Zika virus. 🔬 (@bazzinilab.bsky.social Lab)
Happy Administrative Professionals Day Sara! Thanks for all your work! You are great! @stowersinstitute.bsky.social
#DNA may hold far more protein-coding instructions than we once realized. 🧬 A collaboration including @bazzinilab.bsky.social, published in Nucleic Acids Research has created an expanded catalog of these hidden genetic elements, possibly opening new doors for biomedical #research. bit.ly/4ce6G7F
This #BrainAwarenessWeek, meet Stowers Assistant Investigator, Neşet Özel, Ph.D., whose lab studies how the #brain develops and how neurons connect to form functional circuits. 🧠 🔗 Read more: https://bit.ly/45fg0mA @brainfacts.org @danafoundation.bsky.social

Human DHX29 detects nonoptimal codon usage to regulate mRNA stability
Synonymous codon usage controls global gene expression in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic species. Nonoptimal codons are known to induce mRNA decay; however, the underlying molecular mechanism remains...

Whole-embryo spatial transcriptomics at subcellular resolution from gastrulation to organogenesis
Gene expression patterns underlie development, but their systematic detection in whole embryos has remained elusive. We introduce a whole-embryo imaging platform using multiplexed error-robust fluores...
