I’m excited that this review co-written with my colleague and friend Carl Walkley is now published! We focused on genetic studies, from mouse to human, that uncover the functional importance and mechanisms of RNA editing enzyme ADAR1 and reveal exciting therapeutic potential. #ADAR #RNAediting

Happy April Fool’s Day! But the news from AIRNA is no joke! It’s been incredibly rewarding and humbling to witness the journey of RNA base editing, from the early days in the labs of my co-founder Thorsten Stafforst and mine, to the remarkable progress we see today. #ADAR #RNAediting

A nice article written by Vivien Marx @naturemethods.bsky.social featuring RNA editing, from biology to therapy. I enjoyed talking with her to offer my 2 cents. Exciting times ahead! #ADAR www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Taking control with RNA - Nature Methods
As they study the emerging roles of RNA in disease and homeostasis, some scientists use RNA editing to direct precise RNA changes that shape cellular events.

Time for a 🧵 on our new paper from the Walkley lab in @scienceimmuno.bsky.social. If you're into RNA editing by ADARs, double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) sensing, post-transcriptional gene regulation and CRISPR screening, then read on! 1/X www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... #RNASky #ImmunoSky
GGNBP2 regulates MDA5 sensing triggered by self double-stranded RNA following loss of ADAR1 editing
GGNBP2, CNOT10, and CNOT11 are required for innate immune response after the loss of ADAR1-mediated editing of self dsRNA.
