Exploring osmotic stress-activated RBP regulation in yeast

Posted on by vicent

We are please that our collaboration with the Per Sunnerhagen from Gotheborg University (Sweden) is final out. Great work leaded by Elena Garre from the Sunnerhagen lab! The Lsm1-7/Pat1 complex binds to stress-activated mRNAs and modulates the response to hyperosmotic shock. Garre E, Pelechano V, Sánchez Del Pino M, Alepuz P, Sunnerhagen P. PLoS Genet. 2018 Jul Read more about Exploring osmotic stress-activated RBP regulation in yeast[…]

Open positions at Jaime Huerta’s lab at CBGP in Madrid

Posted on by vicent

A good colleague of mine is starting a computational genomics group at the CBGP institute in Madrid. They focuses on the use and development of comparative (meta-)genomic methods to decipher what makes each organism and ecosystem unique. They study processes such as gene loss and duplication, speciation, functional conservation and horizontal gene transfer. For this, they Read more about Open positions at Jaime Huerta’s lab at CBGP in Madrid[…]
