Recent Publications Harnessing the Power of Translatomics Every week we provide a digest of a small number of recent interesting papers in the field of translatomics. In this week’s Sunday papers, Rana, A. and Thakur, A. demonstrate that translational regulation drives stress adaptation and pathogenesis in Candida glabrata, showing that Gcn2-mediated eIF2α phosphorylation downregulates global […]
Q1. Who inspired you to become a scientist? It was an organic growth, not something I was inspired by, but rather something facilitated by my mentors and supervisors during my MSc, PhD, and postdoctoral work. I studied biology because I wanted to be a teacher, then realised that I could teach students. But when I […]
Recent Publications Harnessing the Power of Translatomics Every week we provide a digest of a small number of recent interesting papers in the field of translatomics. In this week’s Sunday papers, Till et al. show that trigger factor promotes nascent-chain compaction and folding during translation. Troian et al. identify 96 previously unannotated ORFs, many encoding […]
Q1. Who inspired you to become a scientist? Natural curiosity instilled as a boy on walks with my Grandad and, probably Prof. Dave Rickwood who supervised my undergraduate project. Inexplicably, he let an inexperienced student, with a very poor record of lab practical attendance, use one of the first confocal microscopes in the UK. I […]
Recent Publications Harnessing the Power of Translatomics Every week we provide a digest of a small number of recent interesting papers in the field of translatomics. In this week’s Sunday papers, Rincon Diaz, D. et al. find that gcn2 Arabidopsis mutants maintain wild-type-like protein synthesis rates under methyl jasmonate exposure. Warren C.M et al. find […]
