New preprint alert! EuPRI has everything: * New binding data (174 RBPs) * New motifs (34,000 RBPs) * New ML for inferring motifs from protein sequence (JPLE) * Evolution of RBP motifs across eukaryotes * 12 Plant RBPs assigned PTR function. Stay tuned for more www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Reconstructing the sequence specificities of RNA-binding proteins across eukaryotes
Reconstructing the sequence specificities of RNA-binding proteins across eukaryotes

RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are key regulators of gene expression. Here, we introduce EuPRI (Eukaryotic Protein-RNA Interactions) — a freely available resource of RNA motifs for 34,736 RBPs from 690 e...

Wouldn't that be a better candidate for the Economics prize, for better or worth?

I would like to thank the Nobel Prize committee for underlining the importance of my lab’s research. We use AI (Physics) to study post-transcriptional regulation (Medicine), in a large part by using protein language models (Chemistry) to predict RNA-binding protein targets.

If you live in one of these 10 states (AZ, TX AR, MS, FL, GA, TN, KY, IN, OH), today is THE LAST DAY you can register to vote. Even if you think you're registered already, double check to see if your registration is still active. Please do this, it only takes a few minutes. Pass it on.

When an article says "some scientists think" then remember this: I, a scientist, once thought I could fit a whole orange in my mouth. I could, it turns out, get it in there, but I hadn't given sufficient thought to the reverse operation.

Happy #PiDaY!

Fun collaboration with Nikki Case and colleagues; my contribution was to extend our Candescence software for host-pathogen interactions.🧬🖥️ journals.asm.org/doi/full/10....

SHOCKER: world’s most cited epidemiologist who publishes a hundred papers a year but has been subject to extensive criticism for shoddy work opines that we should use quantitative metrics rather than qualitative evaluation to assess researchers. I’m baffled as to why Plos Biology published this.

In defense of quantitative metrics in researcher assessments
In defense of quantitative metrics in researcher assessments

Using quantitative metrics to assess researchers is often seen as a poor choice compared with using qualitative assessments. In this Perspective, the authors argue in favor of using rigorous, field-ad...
