Congratulations to Hannah for winning the best oral presentation during the RNA Editing Gordon Research Seminar and to Herra for being selected as one of four best posters among 114 presenters during the RNA Editing Gordon Research Conference last March 19-24, 2023 at Ventura, CA!
A big congratulations to Hannah for winning 3rd Best Poster in the recently concluded 4th International Conference on Base Editing Enzymes and Applications (Deaminet 2023). Here are some photos of her receiving the award and presenting her poster, along with other oral (Herra) and poster (Agya, Casey, and Bailey) presenters from the Beal lab!
Check out Kevin’s new book chapter on Structure-Guided Optimization of siRNA and Anti-miRNA Properties in Handbook of Chemical Biology of Nucleic Acids!
Check out our latest paper in RSC Chem Bio! This fantastic work by Hannah and team talks about nucleoside analogs that modulate ADAR editing of adenosine at 5′-UA sites. Way to go, guys!
Check out our latest paper in NAR! This work was made possible by the collaborative effort of these amazing people in the Beal and Fisher labs: Erin, Agya, Xander, Herra, Aashrita, and Victorio! Congratulations, everyone!
ADAR activation by inducing a syn conformation at guanosine adjacent to editing site
Natalie is one of three trainees awarded with the Chemical Biology Program training grant for the 2022-2023 academic year. During this fellowship, Natalie will be cross training with Dr. Igor Vorobyov, who works with voltage gated ion channels. Voltage gated ion channels are heavily edited by ADAR2, but the impact editing has on the channels is not well known. Natalie will be doing atomistic modeling of edited and non-edited channels to try to determine the impact editing has on these proteins.
Congratulations, Natalie!
