- How does the malaria parasite regulate co-expression of genes? By recruiting them into transcription factories, courtesy of MORC et al. A fantastic team effort led by @jessmbryant.bsky.social with Jacques Serizay @singh-parul.bsky.social, @ju-couble.bsky.social @rkoszul.bsky.social
- OUT NOW: High resolution map of the Plasmodium falciparum genome reveals MORC/ApiAP2-mediated links between distant, functionally related genes @jessmbryant.bsky.social sky.social @singh-parul.bsky.social @ju-couble.bsky.social #MicroSky www.nature.com/articles/s41...
- As usual, fantastic science at #EMBLMalaria. Special thanks for the travel support from @pasteur.fr in the new EMBL-Pasteur initiative and the organization @lilianamancio.bsky.social @sturalph.bsky.social @events.embl.org
- That’s a wrap on #EMBLMalaria ! 🦟🎉 From game-changing ideas to brilliant conversations, we’re heading home inspired and energised. Huge shoutout to everyone who joined us, and big congrats to the 10 amazing poster prize winners 🏆👏 Stay tuned for 2026 dates and more info on the awarded posters!
- Special shout-out to the presentations from our very own Selina Mussgnung and @thebeilab.bsky.social from the Institut Pasteur network in Dakar!
- Ready for the most beautifully sophisticated m6A modification program out there? It’s sex-specific, controls a developmental transition and is temperature-sensitive. Dream team led by Selina, with @ameyasinha.bsky.social @jessmbryant.bsky.social @tizvignolini.bsky.social @ju-couble.bsky.social
- The first joint labretreat with @anarbgomes.bsky.social, @jessmbryant.bsky.social and @amtalman.bsky.social is in the books. Thank you so much for hosting us, great science and fun. @ecoliswatchingu.cpesr.fr @tizvignolini.bsky.social @pasteur.fr @ird-fr.bsky.social @umontpellier.bsky.social
- Malaria parasites are an extreme example of ribosome heterogeneity. But how do they control which ribosomal RNA to express when? Check out this mountain of work led by @ju-couble.bsky.social with @tizvignolini.bsky.social @jessmbryant.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
- And with a lot of new approaches for the parasite as well…. protein-DNA proximity labelling, quantitative ChIP-seq, microC, ….
