Welcome to the Laboratory of Regulatory RNAs
The lab started in 2023
Our research is focused on small non-coding RNAs involved in regulation of bacterial transcription. We are mainly interested in RNAs that interact with RNA polymerase. We have developed the RIP-seq method to identify these regulatory RNAs across a wide range of bacterial species. Our long-term goal is to elucidate the function(s) of these RNAs and and answer whether they could be utilized in the future to develop specific RNA antibiotics targeting individual bacterial species.
About us
We are offering PhD position!
The topic is focused on RNAs associated with RNA polymerase and their role(s) in the regulation of bacterial transcription
