News & Information
Our new paper is out: Read how the PUN motifs of the RNA-binding protein Loc1p catalyze RNA folding and drive phase separation.
The NAR article shows that Loc1p connects RNA annealing and RNA-mediated phase separation, which may have supported correct folding of early ribozymes…
Sabrina Bacher from our Munich group successfully defended her PhD
PhD hat-trick: in July Wieland Mayer, Thomas Gaber, and Sandra Burczyk from our Ulm team sucessfully defended their PhD thesis. Congratulations!
New paper out! Read why PURA-Syndrome causing mutations have such a high penetrance in patients.
This work published in eLife uses a range of tools to study the effects of different patient mutations on the function and structure of PURA protein.
CONGRATULATIONS! Monika Witzenberger from our Munich lab received a PhD award from the Ulmer Universit盲tsgesellschaft
