New review out in @NAR_Open!
🔎 What makes a bacterial small RNA work?
We discuss:
🧬 Sequence features
🤝 Hfq, ProQ & RNA chaperones
✂️ RNase E & degradosome interactions
🧪 Lessons for synthetic RNA design

Our recent paper looking at history of flagellar motility now online in final form @ISMEJournal
We looked at 10,000 species to map the diversity and history of the bacterial #flagellar motor across the tree of life.

What can wastewater tell us about viruses? 💩🚽🧬📈
During the COVID-19 pandemic many labs turned to wastewater monitoring to detect viruses. However, @WhiteLabUNSW has been using wastewater for over 10 years to monitor circulating norovirus 🤮. 🧵

Grateful to have contributed to a study led by Feifei Su @UNSW, exploring how NEGR1 deficiency affects GAD65 accumulation, synaptic GABA synthesis, and feeding behavior. NEGR1 influences GABAergic signaling, with potential links to psychiatric disorders. [bit.ly/3OYqDnQ]

Bowling 🎳 w/ @UNSWBABS and our lab for end of year 🎉🍕🍻.
Fun bowl-off which our lab lost. Eerie to be inside in the dark then exit after a few VBs to blazing ☀️🌞 32C.
Shout out to HoS @shanetgrey & School Mgr Michael Bowen leading us on and off the lanes.
#buckhunter also.
