Please re-post: If you know (or are!) somebody who might fancy doing a PhD (Oct 2026 start) in my group @oxfordbiochemistry.bsky.social, working on chromatin evolution in prokaryotes (or other things we're interested in), please have a look at www.bioch.ox.ac.uk/supervisors-...

Fantastic day at the Eukaryotic RNA Turnover meeting!

We wrapped up insightful sessions on:
- RNA therapeutics & RNA modification
- RNA molecular machines & RNA-binding proteins
- RNA localization & turnover

Thanks to all speakers! @biochemsoc.bsky.social #BiochemEvent

Great work by @romainstrock.bsky.social and the @tobiaswarnecke.bsky.social 's lab showing that some archaea make enzymes that attack bacteria, suggesting archaeal–bacterial conflicts are common.

Romain Strock @romainstrock.bsky.social · Aug 15

This first-author publication is my… first! Archaea kill bacteria by targeting their Achilles’ heel: peptidoglycan. Big shoutout to @ahocher.bsky.social‬, @valeriesoo.bsky.social‬, Pauline Misson, @tobiaswarnecke.bsky.social‬ and MRC LMS Proteomics. A thread 🔽

Archaea produce peptidoglycan hydrolases that kill bacteria

Archaea regularly interact with bacteria but reports of archaea killing bacteria are very rare. This study shows that many archaea encode peptidoglycan hydrolases, which specifically target bacterial ...
