Polarized growth in #Spombe needs Cdc42, but what role does it play in cell fusion? @sajjitasaha.bsky.social @sophiemartinlab.bsky.social &co show that mitotic polarized growth responds linearly to Cdc42 levels, but mating involves a sharp switch-like response @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4bvGIhb

We set out to understand how subtelomeric #heterochromatin is organized in #Spombe. Subtelomeres are repetitive, variable, and poorly mapped, yet play essential roles in protecting chromosome ends and regulating genome function. (1/n)

Excited to share that our work on “Uridylation regulates transcript levels in quiescent yeast cells” was selected for an oral presentation at #yeast2025 in Paris!
Looking forward to sharing our results and discussing RNA regulation in quiescence #quiescence #Spombe #RNAbiology
