New exciting research from the Johansson Lab at Uppsala University! 🦠🔬
Check out our latest preprint! By investigating translation initiation kinetics in live E. coli cells we found that the IF2α isoform directly interacts with the transcription factor NusA, suggesting a novel link between transcription and translation. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Zooming around a bacteria cell. It's so cool
I just got the cell imported (including lipids) and rendering correctly with the new rendering engine (it's called Angstrom). 3x performance boost! So much detail (too much?!)

In this initial phase, I will be recruiting two PhD students and two Postdocs. Reach out through DM or email if you are interested in using high-throughput binding measurements and quantitative modeling to explore the mysteries of life at the molecular level!

I am thrilled to announce that I will be joining @scilifelab and @Stockholm_Uni as an Assistant Professor and SciLifeLab fellow in October! 🥳 My lab will investigate how sequence information in DNA, RNA and protein determine recognition, binding and dynamical structure.

Here are the big takeaways from the @IPCC_CH Synthesis Report released today.
First, climate change has already caused widespread and substantial losses to almost every aspect of human life on this planet, and the impacts on future generations depend on the choices we make NOW.

PAPER OF THE YEAR!!! Congratulations to 🤩@Aathmaja 🤩whose work demonstrating the mechanism of nutrient cross-feeding between human gut symbionts was recognized as a top paper by @MicrobioSoc! #Microscopy #Microbiology doi.org/10.1099/mic.0.001180
Last week we announced the winners of the Microbiology best papers of the year 2022. In our latest blog, we spoke to authors @Aathmaja, Manjunatha N and Gary Sawers to find out more about them and their research. 🔬microb.io/3ZoF20s

Given that RNA is more in the public consciousness now, I wrote this article aimed at a lay audience that describes the results of our two most recent papers aiming to understand how RNAs are trafficked to specific subcellular locations. theconversation.com/how-does… – at Colorado, USA

Does anyone know of a reliable vendor that would carry total RNA from different primary cell types?

It started with a surprise observation, then careful analysis and experiments that turned our initial theory around. That's how science should be! Congratulations to @Divya_ch_ @Valentinelagage!
1/ Very excited to share my first PhD paper out in cell reports!! We show that oxidative stress response heterogeneity in E. coli arises from short range cell-cell interactions.
