Now it's official - I have accepted a full professorship for Systems Genetics @VetmeduniVienna...and today is my first day. I am very much looking forward to becoming part of the excellent RNA and structural biology community in Austria. Exciting times ahead!

- I am extremely happy and proud to announce that I have been elected as EMBO Member. I would like to thank everyone that has supported me along the way!!! @EMBOOutstanding scientists elected to EMBO Membership: in EMBO’s 60th anniversary year, 100 new members and 20 associate members join the community embo.org/press-releases…
- We have determined the high resolution cryo-EM structure of endogenous plant cytochrome b6f (cytb6f) at an unprecedent resolution of 2.1 Å. We also show plastocyanin bound to one of the two monomers of cytb6f. Just out in @ScienceAdvances. A short 🧵
- Finally out – we have determined the first single particle cryo-EM structures of the fully assembled Elongator complexes from yeast and mouse. Thank you @NAR_Open for highlighting our work as a #BreakthroughArticle and @NCN_PL, @FNP_org_pl and @ERC_Research for funding🧵
- We are very excited about our latest #Elongator work, which is just out @NatureComms nature.com/articles/s4146…. The work @MCB_UJ was driven by Nour-el-Hana Abbassi, Marcin Jaciuk and @TingYuLin1031 in collaboration with Raffael Schaffrath @uni_kassel and @RappsilberLab…a short🧵
- I am extremely happy and proud to receive the FNP Prize 2024 in Life and Earth Sciences – also known as the "Polish Nobel Prize". This huge honor from @FNP_org_pl would obviously have never happened without the tremendous work of all current and former lab members.
- We are very excited about our first #ribosome and #m6A related work, which is just out @NatureComms – nature.com/articles/s4146…. The work was driven by @jainsakshi989, @lukaszkoziej and @panos_poulis in an excellent collaboration between @MCB_UJ and @mpi_nat
- I am excited to announce that our OPUS24 grant from @NCN_PL has been accepted for funding. More #Urm1 / #Ubiquitin research happening at @MCB_UJ @JagiellonskiUni for the next 4 years. Thanks to @er_keerthiraju and @dbkwasna for all their amazing work and dedication!
- We just finished the spring evaluation for the National cryo-EM facility @SOLARIS_science. Thanks to @M_Hospenthal, @drtranfield, @TCR_Miller, @calfieri84, @WojtekGalej and @SchurLab for visiting – see you in person next time @KukulskiWanda, @Sveta_Dodonova and @MarjetaPodobnik.
- Our latest work on #Elongator is out in @EmboMolMed - after working on the complex for over 10 years, it still keeps surprising us - here a short summary 🧵@MCB_UJ @UJ @Struc_biol_PL @FNP_org_pl @ERC_Research📰What role does a tRNA modification complex, called Elongator, play in brain development? Publication by @MCB_UJ scientists from @GlattSebastian @Struc_biol_PL @SOLARIS_science in @EmboMolMed Details: tinyurl.com/2p92j23r Full text: embopress.org/doi/full/10.15…
- We are very excited about our latest work, which just came out @MolecularCell – doi.org/10.1016/j.molc…. The work @MCB_UJ was driven by @TingYuLin1031 in collaboration with Sebastian Leidel @unibern…a short🧵
- Replying to @GlattSebastianWe determined high-resolution single particle cryo-EM structures of the human pseudouridine synthase 3 (PUS3) in presence and absence of different tRNA substrates. PUS3 catalyzes pseudouridylation of position 38/39 in tRNAs.
- A very early start in Krakow (4:30 a.m.), but after some coffee in Vienna the Urm1 team is ready for #EMBOubiquitin22 in beautiful Croatia. Looking forward to meet the whole ubiquitin family and present our latest work that will get published next week...#proofs_done
- It was a great pleasure to host the RNA and Structural Biology sectorial meeting of the @EMBO_YIP network in Krakow. Outstanding science, panel discussions, a bit of socializing and lots of new ideas. Many thanks to @EMBO, @SOLARIS_science and @MCB_UJ for the support.
