Dr. Tholen!
Congratulations to our newest PhD, Jonas Tholen!!! Jonas determined structures of several U2 snRNP complexes and defended his thesis at the University of Heidelberg in November this year. Well done Jonas!
Structure and function of RNA-protein complexes
Congratulations to our newest PhD, Jonas Tholen!!! Jonas determined structures of several U2 snRNP complexes and defended his thesis at the University of Heidelberg in November this year. Well done Jonas!
Great scientific exchanges and leisure activities during our joint retreat with Eustermann group from EMBL Heidelberg. We spent 3 days together at a beautiful venue of Château de Bournel (France).Looking forward to the next one!
Check out our latest review in Current Opinion in Structural Biology summarizing recent progress in mechanistic studies of the spliceosome.
The summer is here!
Our brief summary of the recent progress in understanding the structure and function of the Integrator complex was just published in Transcription. Moritz M. Pfleiderer & Wojciech P. Galej (2022) Emerging insights into the function and structure of the Integrator complex. Transcription,…
Every year we take a day off and go skiing together. This time we went to Alpe d’Huez. Beautiful mountains and fantastic weather, only 1.5h away from Grenoble!

Our snowshoeing trip had to be cancelled due to bad weather conditions, but at least we made it to a fondue restaurant and enjoyed some nice winter food!
Our new paper on the structure of the human U2 snRNP was just published in Science ! In human cells protein-coding genetic information is punctuated with non-coding segments – Introns, which need to be removed from pre-mRNA by the spliceosome. U2 snRNP recognises a conserved position within…
Sonal Lagad is our newest lab member. She joined EMBL International PhD Programme in August to work on pre-mRNA splicing.
