Native RNA nanopore sequencing reveals antibiotic-induced loss of rRNA modifications in the A- and P-sites
Nature Communications - It remains unclear whether rRNA modifications can be naturally altered in response to antibiotics in bacteria. Here, the authors analyzed direct RNA nanopore sequencing data...

Knocking out a gene doesn’t always rob the target cells of their mRNA and protein. Sometimes neighboring cells can provide these basic outputs to, in effect, compensate for the disabled gene. A recent mouse study pinpoints how, at least in fat tissue. 🧬🐭💉
