And here goes another one - @rtg2355.bsky.social-member Fabienne Becker from the Friedhoff lab presented her research at the 2025 Helicase Conference in Lisbon today: "The Conserved C-terminal Domain of Tho1 Stimulates the DEAD-box Helicase Sub2" - more coming soon #proudCoordinator 😉

Palina Kot from @straesserlab.bsky.social recently gave a talk on her "Structural and Functional Insights into the Sub2-Yra1-Tho1 Complex in Nuclear mRNP Biogenesis" at the 2nd Polish RNA Biology Meeting in Poznan - #proudPI

Congratulations also from our side - and thanks for the party! 😘

Doctoral student (m/f/d) in the field of RNA Biology

Interested in RNA biology, especially mRNA processing and export from nucleus to cytoplasm? We are looking for an enthusiastic PhD student to investigate the RNA-binding proteins Sub2 and Tho1 🧪🧫🔬

An elevated level of the mRNA exporter Mex67-Mtr2 in nuclear mRNPs impairs nuclear mRNA export In eukaryotes, a crucial step in gene expression is the export of the mRNA out of nucleus. The conserved mRNA exporter Mex67-Mtr2 (NXF1-NXT1 in human) is a key factor in this process. In S. cerevisiae...

We are excited to share the work of Nataliia Stefanyshena who showed that maintenance of an optimal Mex67 level in nuclear mRNPs is required for efficient mRNA export: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
