Accurate RNA structure prediction remains a challenge, despite recent computational advances. This study presents DRFold2, a #DeepLearning framework that significantly enhances accuracy of de novo #RNAstructure prediction by increasing contact prediction precision @plosbiology.org π§ͺ plos.io/4aoOQiX
Finally had the time to look through and process more photos Iβve taken in Senegal. Hereβs some of my favourites!
Also extremely happy to see work finally published! Kudos to @yushuchen.bsky.social's tenacity and hard work! Read our previous thread and the paper itself for details/updates! Happy to chat if you find our findings interesting! #MicroSky

Mycolic acids (MAs) are the major component of the mycobacterial outer membrane, a
key contributor to the intrinsic resistance of mycobacteria to e...
Happy to share our newest preprint addressing the basis of trehalose essentiality in mycobacteria! This is a story brewing in the lab for the longest time, started by MSc grad Justin Lim, & now completed by the amazing PhD grad-turned-postdoc @yushuchen.bsky.social! #MicroSky #Mycobacteria 1/8
Here is it! Super new science from us on horizontal gene transfer & bact defense systems! Liyana OW YONG discovered the first-of-its-kind defense factor AbjA that triggers 'abortive conjugation' as a defense mechanism, by targeting the T4SS! How neat?! #MicroSky 1/7
