Chapter 2 of branched RNA: chemically modified branched cap for multi-capped mRNA and capped circular RNA (QRNA)--the cellular translation machinery is surprisingly tolerant of unnatural structures! Beyond enhanced performance, the mechanism is intriguing: rdcu.be/dUQKX

1/2 @SHEIN_Official is one of the worst fast fashion offenders, tangled up in so many abuses, including #Uyghurforcedlabour, worker exploitation, overconsumption, & environmental harm. DESPITE all this, Shein is shamelessly going on with business as usual.
