MiguelGFThe telomeric lncRNA known as #TERRA is no longer “non coding”! Jack Griffith and colleagues 👏 found out that #telomeres are actually translated into val-arg and gly-leu repeat peptides! This is most unexpected without a possible function in sight! Amazing! 😳 https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2221529120
Thiago Carvalho@miguelgf Does this count as a promotion?
@cyrilpedia No.. not really. But gives closure to a 6-year old project that had a key moment with a conversation with you and Antonio Coutinho in the Admin Room of the IGC. You guys said it was worth a shot, although AC was adamant that it was the immune system that would prove the initiator organ. 🙂 I am still going to do that experiment!…
