Structure and function of RNA-protein complexes
After five productive years in the lab, Michal Razew is leaving for a new position at the University of Heidelberg. We had a wonderful farewell dinner to celebrate all his contributions to our lab. All the best for your future endeavors! Michal’s papers from the time at EMBL Grenoble:…
This year we went to Le Grand-Bornand for our annual group retreat. Great science discussion and leisure time just before the Christmas break.

We had a great time at the joint Eustermann-Galej group retreat in Alsace. Two days of intense exchanges, whiteboard presentations and focus group discussions. All that was complemented by great food and an introductory golf session. We are back in Grenoble, inspired to try new experiments!
Check out the latest thematic issue of NSMB focusing on mechanisms of RNA splicing and processing. We are delighted to have our small contribution there!
U5 snRNP is one of the key building blocks of the spliceosome, but how it is assembled and recycled remains unknown. In our new paper published in NSMB, we provide new mechanistic insights into this process. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41594-024-01250-5 We investigated the role of the assembly…
We warmly welcome Sichen, Iskander and Jonas, our latest group members who joined in the past few months. Sichen Su did his PhD in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the Fudan University in Shanghai under the supervision of Dr. Jinbiao Ma.He investigated various aspects of RNA metabolism…
We are happy to share a new collaborative work lead by Jana Aupic and Alessandra Magistrato from the National Research Council of Italy (CNR) in Triest. Molecular dynamics simulations of the complete yeast catalytic spliceosome revealed detailed trajectories of the reagents during the first step of…
We are happy to share that our newest collaborative paper on self-damage control and defence system during pathogen infection was just published in Science! Huge congratulations to everyone involved, in particular our collaborators Daniel Fisch and Eva Frickel (https://frickellab.com/) for driving…
