Despite the restrictions due to the coronavirus pandemic, 2020 has been very successful for the Dulin lab, as we have been awarded 3 individual DFG grants for this year only to study human mitochondrial transcription termination, Pol I transcription initiation, and SARS-CoV RNA synthesis! Thank you ...

We are very excited to share our latest results on how antiviral drugs stop replication of SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for the COVID19 pandemic. Check our preprint on bioRxiv! Nucleotide analogues, such as Remdesivir, are our best strategy to cure SARS-CoV-2 infection. The genome of SARS-CoV-...

We are very pleased to welcome Dr. Salina Quack, who just joined the Dulin lab as a postdoc. She graduated her PhD from Ulm University under the supervision of Prof. Jens Michaelis, where she worked on nucleosome remodelers using single molecule FRET. In the Dulin lab, she will use her single molecu...

Mona has just submitted a new article in BioRviv, where she reports the replication kinetics of several viral RNA dependent RNA polymerases as a function of temperature using high throughput magnetic tweezers. To this end, she has developed and calibrated a new/simple/cheap temperature control syste...
