Our latest paper on adenine and cytosine methylation in Mucoral fungi just appeared in @NatureComms. This is a collaboration between us, Victor Garre’s group at U Murcia (Spain), @jgi and many other amazing colleagues. nature.com/articles/s4146…
We need antibodies to a Neurospora protein. Can anyone recommend an affordable peptide synthesis/antibody production service?
Do fungal Starships 🚀 matter for human health? We dive into the pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus and connect the dots between these unusual transposons and strain variability. Spoiler alert: biofilms, secondary metabolites and intra-strain variation, oh my! biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…
