Henkin made ground-breaking discoveries of RNA-based regulation, demonstrating that tRNA is a regulator of transcription and translation, and codiscovering the riboswitch in Gram-positive bacteria. In both cases, she has tied elegant demonstration of mechanism to understanding of the physiological signals that underlie the regulation. |
