Bacteria don’t just shut down under starvation — they rewire gene expression.
Our study shows how (p)ppGpp directly activates transcription programs during nutrient limitation.

Thinking about biological collections lately I'm reminded of the time that somehow at age 4, I got a personal tour of the @UCBerkeley entomology collection (Essig?) from a kind scientist (anybody know who?!). Asked my parents how on earth THAT happened, and it turns out...🤯

🚨 We are hiring! 🚨
Please RT: We are looking for an enthusiastic and creative postdoc to join our team in beautiful NYC to study the (de-)regulation of RNA turnover and RNA quality control pathways during viral infection.

The Dworkin Lab (@dworkinlab) at Columbia U in NYC has funded postdoc openings to study entry and exit from quiescence in bacteria. Other areas of interest include phenotypic heterogeneity and the energetics of bacterial spores. Pls contact directly if interested, and pls RT.

All 4 of the biggest technical advances in the history of biotech - recombinant DNA, sequencing, PCR, genome editing - require enzymes from bacteria.

A virus is not anyone’s instrument of moral retribution- the AIDS crisis taught that. But it is nature’s implacable bullshit detector.

Phosphine gas is used as a dopant in semiconductor manufacturing to create n-type silicon. Phosphine was just discovered in the clouds of Venus. The obvious conclusion is that there is life on Venus and it is manufacturing semiconductors.

Was just introduced by the session chair at the #cshltranscon meeting at being from #JonathanDworkin’s lab! 🙄🤣 I wonder if this means I can get Jonathan to pay my salary? 🤣

People don’t get it. The only reason last month 25 people died of axes in their head was because they all asked someone if they had an axe in their head. If they hadn’t asked, they wouldn’t have died. But the Socialists don’t understand that. Remember: Don’t Ask, No Axe!

Jim’s courage and persistence helped change America for the better. And so did every American who marched, organized, stood up, came out—or changed their own heart because they love someone who did. Happy anniversary, everybody.
Our new PNAS paper is just out on the role of (p)pGpp in shutting down protein synthesis in quiescence @pnas pnas.org/content/early/2020/…

Actually you just got ROCKED by teens on TikTok who flooded the Trump campaign w/ fake ticket reservations & tricked you into believing a million people wanted your white supremacist open mic enough to pack an arena during COVID
Shout out to Zoomers. Y’all make me so proud. ☺️
Radical protestors, fueled by a week of apocalyptic media coverage, interfered with @realDonaldTrump supporters at the rally.
They even blocked access to the metal detectors, preventing people from entering.
Thanks to the 1,000s who made it anyway!
