New Preprint from the lab: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... Big thanks to everyone involved!! Asen Garbelyanski, David Hauser, Alberto Trolese, Prateek Kumar, Hin Hark Gan, Caroline de Almeida, Matthias Mayer, @mariahondele.bsky.social, Teresa Carlomagno, and Kris Gunsalus.

Excited to share our new @narjournal.bsky.social paper! Using ReLo and AlphaFold, we described a network of interactions between Drosophila piRNA pathway factors suggesting new links how they coordinate to ensure transposon silencing and genome integrity. academic.oup.com/nar/article/...

Dear friends of RNA 📣 registration for the 13th meeting of the RNA Biochemistry study group is now open. Please register at www.rna-biochemistry.de Also register for our newsletter to receive updates from the study group and RNA meetings.

New preprint: nxReLo: a simple assay to probe direct interactions between nuclear proteins in cells. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Joint effort between Sherif, Jana, and Maria, and in collaboration with Peter Andersen @germline.bsky.social.

The GfG is delighted to reconnect with everyone here on Bluesky! We're excited to announce our upcoming symposium, "Epigenetics & Chromatin", taking place September 24–26 in Giessen, Germany. Stay tuned for more details! (... and become a member of the GfG...!)

Hi Bluesky community! 👋 Are you looking forward to 2025 as much as we are? 👀 We just updated our 2025 Annual Poster to include even more events for you to join, so go and have a look! ➡️ s.embl.org/poster-bl #EMBLEvents #molecularbiology #lifesciencetraining

We are looking for new group leaders. If RNA is your thing, and/or computational biology and you want to start your own group, check out these links. Feel free to contact me about these! And, please help me spread this. Thanks! www.imb.de/jobs/jobdeta... www.imb.de/jobs/jobdeta...

🧬 New PAN Lab Preprint Alert! 🧬 1/ Genome defence pathway genes are crucial for animal fertility yet often evolve rapidly. We investigated the molecular basis of such rapid evolution in the fly piRNA pathway TL;DR: protein-protein interaction innovation 💡🤝 🧵👇 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Recurrent innovation of protein-protein interactions in the Drosophila piRNA pathway

Despite being essential for fertility, genome defence pathway genes often evolve rapidly. However, little is known about the molecular basis of this adaptation. Here, we characterize the evolution of ...
