Very nice work! Congratulations!
Our latest work is now out in @cp-molcell.bsky.social !
We have looked at Sgt1, an essential Hsp90 co-chaperone in yeast. We determined its interaction with Hs90 and showed that it stabilises the chaperone-client complex and prevents its dissociation by Aha1.

⭐NAR Breakthrough! ⭐
🧬 A synthetic RNA forms a #G-quadruplex without a G-rich sequence, using a complex 3D fold and GTP as a ligand. This suggests G-quadruplexes may be far more widespread in biologically important RNAs. Read more: doi.org/10.1093/nar/...

🚨Paper Alert🚨
We found a novel transcription factor function of the zinc finger protein “Hangover” in the regulation of Drosophila gene expression🪰🧬:

A thread:
Hangover regulates gene expression by limiting NSL-mediated H4K16 acetylation
Abstract. The RNA-binding protein Hangover (Hang) is essential for several stress responses in Drosophila melanogaster. Here, we discover a novel function

Our structure determination of a dopamine-binding DNA aptamer yielded surprising results. The structure had only 2 Watson-Crick base pairs, but lots of base pairs normally only seen in RNA folds. Check out our crazy DNA structure in the recent bioRxiv preprint, along with other binding details.
