We're hiring! Are you looking for a PhD position in structural biology? We offer a fully-funded 4 year contract to study basic processes connected to transcription. If you're interested in joining us in sunny Madrid, get in touch with us!
We are happy to share our latest work on RNA polymerase I! We continued our #CryoEM study of its stalling mechanism, this time at abasic lesions, and uncovered interesting Pol I configurations.

El pasado jueves estuvo Carlos en el #GoogleCloudSummitMadrid compartiendo nuestros últimos resultados, obtenidos con el apoyo de Alphafold, sobre complejos enzimáticos del parásito de la enfermedad del sueño: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3859…
La publicación de #AlphaFold3 nos trae muchas oportunidades en el campo, especialmente para los que trabajamos en interacciones proteína-ácido nucleico. Carlos da unas pinceladas sobre su gran potencial, pero también sus posibles limitaciones, en @abc_es: abc.es/ciencia/carlos-fernan…
We are very excited to share the structure of the T. brucei MCC and a putative activation mechanism! Out now in structure:

¡Damos la bienvenida a la nueva directora y vicedirectores! Agradecemos su labor al equipo saliente y tenemos muchas ganas de seguir trabajando de cerca estos años.
Damos la bienvenida a la Dra Pilar S. Testillano como nueva directora del @CIB_CSIC. La acompañarán como parte de su equipo, los vicedirectores Carmen Gil y Antonio Romero.
Esta tarde Adrián y Carlos van a presentar algunos de nuestros últimos avances en el congreso ibérico de microscopía electrónica, en Braga. No os los perdáis a las 14:30! #MFS2023
Breaking news! "Conserved GTPase mechanism in bacterial FtsZ and archaeal tubulin filaments" - a snapshot on the conserved GTPase mechanism in bacteria and archea.

For our part, we have really enjoyed listening to the interesting stories that were shared in these past days, and visiting Jaén was a blast. Until next time! #OddPols2023
We finish the scientific sessions today with Sonia's talk about our latest @NatureComms paper on Pol III and Ty1 and some very exciting discussion with @pascale_lesage and the audience! #OddPols2023
Closing off the second poster session along with the great work of @Olga_ocg@ibfg_es lab! There's a lot of promising work being shared in these sessions :) #OddPols2023
Very nice social activity of the #odddpols23 community with a sightseeing of the city, and an olive oil tasting activity at the Magdalena's church thanks to the collaboration with @FundacionCRJ and the parish church. @TorneroLab
Carlos Fernández-Tornero (@CIB_CSIC), is a co-organizer of the OddPols 2023, which will be held in Jaén between May 30-Jun 2. This scientific congress is framed in the field of #transcription and it is organized for the first time in Europe.

Además, en el último episodio de "A Hombros de Gigantes" @rne, @searavalero incluyó testimonios de Carlos Fernández-Tornero sobre el mismo tema, los "genes saltarines": rtve.es/play/audios/a-hombro…
¡Ya podéis leer en la página del CSIC un pequeño artículo sobre nuestra última publicación! Nueva información sobre la inserción de "genes saltarines" en el genoma -->csic.es/es/actualidad-del-cs…
Very happy to share this novel story from our labs: Cryo-EM structures of Ty1 IN-Pol III complexes revealing new determinants of Ty1 targeting and functional impact of on Pol III activity that may increase the probability of Ty1 integration
