SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:RNA Innovation Seminar featuring Rising Scholars: Khan & McMillan
DESCRIPTION:Registration Required: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_uLz-ONHVQPuRINMYUNvBJQ\n\n“CCR5 as a model to examine reporter assays in evaluating translational phenomena”\nYousuf Khan\nKnight-Hennessy Scholar\nStanford University\n\nKEYWORDS: dual luciferase\, frameshifting\, recoding\, CCR5\nABSTRACT: During the decoding of a subset of mRNAs\, a proportion of ribosomes productively shift to the −1 reading frame at specific slippage-prone sites in a phenomenon known as programmed −1 ribosomal frameshifting (−1 PRF) to generate a frameshifted\, C-terminally unique protein. The first experimentally verified occurrence of functionally utilized non-retroelement derived −1 PRF in humans has been reported in the mRNA encoding the immune-functioning C-C chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5). Here\, we show that frameshifting does not occur during CCR5 decoding. Apart from its importance in understanding expression of a gene relevant to cancer\, an HIV-1 receptor (and the associated claimed rationale for generating the first humans derived from genetically modified embryos)\, the findings imply that caution is appropriate in assessing results from translational reporter assays.\n\n~and~\n\n“Intersection between RNA methylation and TDP43-mediated toxicity in ALS”\nMichael McMillan\nPh.D. candidate\nCellular and Molecular Biology\nUniversity of Michigan\n\nKEYWORDS: TDP43\, m6A\, ALS\, RNA stability\nABSTRACT: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease resulting in the death of upper and lower motor neurons. ALS has no known cure and limited therapeutic options\, and the underlying pathological mechanisms remain unclear. Despite considerable variability in clinical presentation\, over 95% of ALS cases exhibit cytoplasmic inclusions of the RNA binding protein TDP43. Emerging evidence suggests that TDP43 is crucial for RNA stability\, and that dysregulation of RNA homeostasis may contribute to ALS pathogenesis.\nMethylation of RNA at the 6th position nitrogen (N6-methyladenosine methylation\, or m6A) by methyltransferases (writers) or removal of methyl groups by demethylases (erasers) has dramatic effects on RNA stability and translation mediated by a family of RNA biding proteins that recognize methylated RNA (readers). m6A writers and erasers specifically localize to nuclear speckles\, membraneless nuclear organelles rich in RNA binding proteins and splicing factors\, including TDP43. Together with our data showing that TDP43 regulates RNA stability\, these observations suggest that TDP43 may destabilize m6A modified RNA. Here\, we show that methylated RNA co-purified with TDP43 from cultured cells via RNA immunoprecipitation\, and abrogation of methylation sites disrupted TDP43 binding\, suggesting that TDP43 recognizes m6A modified RNA in cellulo. We also noted profound and widespread hypermethylation of coding and non-coding transcripts in ALS spinal cord\, many overlapping with confirmed TDP43 target transcripts. Consistent with a central role for m6A modification in TDP43-mediated toxicity\, we identified several factors operating within the m6A pathway that enhance or suppress the toxicity of TDP43 in rodent primary cortical neurons via a single-cell CRISPR/Cas9 candidate-based screen. Genetic knockout of the established m6A reader YTHDF2 rescued TDP43 toxicity in primary neurons\, and YTHDF2 was also upregulated in ALS postmortem sections. Together\, these data imply a fundamental link between m6A RNA modifications and ALS pathogenesis\, potentially mediated by TDP43-dependent RNA destabilization.

She is an Arthur F. Thurnau Professor and the Geneva Smitherman Collegiate Professor of English Language and Literature\, Linguistics\, and Education.\n\nPreregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Japanese Studies and Antiracist Pedagogy | Fugitive Planning and Potentials for Study: Lessons from the Japanese Studies and Antiracist Pedagogy Project (JSAP)
DESCRIPTION:Advance registration for this Zoom webinar is required: https://tinyurl.com/en9thcc6\n\nPart of the Japanese Studies and Antiracist Pedagogy webinar series: https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/jsap/webinars/\n\nWhat should an antiracist practice entail within the context of Japanese studies? What conceptual\, political\, and interpersonal tools might hinder or support such a project? And what pitfalls and possibilities should be avoided or embraced in pursuing better ways of learning and living? Given the racist origins and supremacist legacies of Japanese studies\, approaching this field through an antiracist lens can seem fraught\, if not doomed. Nevertheless\, our Japanese Studies and Antiracist Pedagogy Project (JSAP) represents an experiment that attempted to do just this. As part of this project\, we taught a mixed undergraduate/graduate course in the Winter semester of 2021\, “Antiracism and Japanese Culture\,” which entailed teaching and learning a number of lessons about “Japan\,” analytical tools\, politics\, and the various intellectual and institutional constraints that shape our understanding. This webinar features presentations and reflections on the JSAP enterprise by the project’s co-organizers\, Sophie Hasuo\, Reginald Jackson\, and Rachel Willis. In addition to explaining the course’s specific pedagogical underpinnings\, goals\, and organization\, we will also discuss various philosophical and pragmatic aspects of developing such a collaborative project. Influenced by Moten and Harney’s notion of fugitive planning in The Undercommons\, we outline lessons learned from working together to imagine how best to study and thrive within and beyond the ivory tower.\n   \n   Reginald Jackson is an Associate Professor of Pre-modern Japanese Literature at the University of Michigan. His research is at the intersection of literature\, art history\, and performance studies.\n\nThe following text will be included on all II events unless  you indicate otherwise:If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:WCTF 2021 Juneteenth Celebration
DESCRIPTION:RSVP here:  http://www.cew.umich.edu/events/wctf-2021-juneteenth-celebration\n\nJoin the Women of Color Task Force for its 2nd annual Juneteenth observance event. The theme for our event is “Improving Intercultural Race Relations to Develop Intercultural Solidarity.” \n\nJuneteenth\, also called Jubilee Day\, Freedom Day\, Liberation Day\, or Emancipation Day\, is the designated holiday commemorating the freedom of the slaves in the United States\, traditionally observed annually on June 19th. President Abraham Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation had officially outlawed slavery in Texas and the other states in rebellion against the Union almost two and a half years earlier on January 1\, 1863. Enforcement of the Proclamation generally relied on the advancement of the Union troops. The anniversary of the June 19\, 1865 date recognizes the day that the announcement by Union Army Major General Gordon Granger\, proclaiming freedom from slavery and the end of the Civil War was delivered to Galveston\, Texas. \n\nThe Juneteenth holiday is celebrated on Saturday\, June 19\, 2021\, but we invite you to join us for our celebration on Friday\, June 18th\, from 8:30 am - 1:30 pm.\n\nShare your photos from past Juneteenth celebrations and events organized by your community and/or family!! If you have a picture to share\, you may upload your photo by midnight on June 4th into this Google form: https://forms.gle/bMZ46tGH1YedgE1a7. Submissions will be reviewed\, and selected photos will be included in a slideshow that will be shown at the virtual Juneteenth event.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:The Clements Bookworm: African American Children in the Antebellum North
DESCRIPTION:In her new book “Beyond the Boundaries of Childhood: African American Children in the Antebellum North\,” Dr. Crystal Webster argues that young African Americans were frequently left outside the 19th century's emerging constructions of both race and childhood. They were marginalized in the development of schooling\, ignored in debates over child labor\, and presumed to lack the inherent innocence ascribed to white children. Drawing evidence from the urban centers of Boston\, New York\, and Philadelphia\, Webster's innovative research yields a powerful new history of African American childhood before the Civil War\, showing that Black children nevertheless carved out physical and social space for play\, for learning\, and for their own aspirations. \n\nDr. Webster joins us in conversation with Clements Library Director Paul Erickson. This episode coincides with the celebration of Juneteenth and a growing national recognition of understudied histories and experiences of African Americans in the past.   \n\nRegister at myumi.ch/gjgzR\n\n*This episode of the Bookworm is generously sponsored by an anonymous Clements Supporter.*\n\n*The Clements Bookworm is a webinar series in which panelists and featured guests discuss history topics. Recommended books\, articles\, and other resources are provided in each session. Inspired by the traditional Clements Library researcher tea time\, we invite you to pull up a chair at our [virtual] table. Live attendees are encouraged to post comments and questions\, respond to polls\, and add to our conversation and camaraderie.*

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Halal Metropolis
DESCRIPTION:The Halal Metrop­o­lis exhi­bi­tion\, by artist Osman Khan\, pho­tog­ra­pher Razi Jafri\, and his­to­rian Sally How­ell\, explores the facts\, fic­tions\, and imag­i­nar­ies of the Mus­lim population(s) in Detroit and South­east Michi­gan as viewed through his­tor­i­cal research\, doc­u­men­ta­tion of cur­rent con­di­tions\, and explo­rations of future desires.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:20 Things Everyone Should Know about Slavery
DESCRIPTION:Panelists will seek to generate a discussion about how historical knowledge might contribute solutions to the problems of contemporary expressions of human slavery and offer new pathways to democracy and freedom.\n\nAmong American historians\, it is generally agreed that the historical study of chattel slavery covered about 250 years: from 1619 to 1865 in the United States and to 1888 in Brazil and the Americas. Yet slavery has not disappeared. Globally\, an estimated 27–40 million persons are victims of involuntary servitude. What if these contemporary forms of human labor exploitation constitute a “Third Slavery”? \n\nIntroductions will be given by Dr. Earl Lewis\, director of the Center for Social Solutions and the Thomas C. Holt Distinguished University Professor of Afroamerican and African Studies\, History\, and Public Policy. \n\nThe roundtable discussion will be chaired by Dr. Daina Ramey Berry\, the Oliver H. Radkey Regents Professor of History at the University of Texas at Austin. Panelists include: \n\nDavid W. Blight\, the Sterling Professor of History and director of the Gilder Lehrman Center for the Study of Slavery\, Resistance\, and Abolition at Yale University\; \n\nAmbassador (ret.) Luis C.deBaca\, a Senior Fellow at the Gilder Lehrman Center for the Study of Slavery\, Resistance\, and Abolition at Yale University\; \n\nDuncan Jepson is the managing director of Liberty Shared\, a legal advocacy non-profit that aims to prevent human trafficking\;\n\nGenevieve LeBaron\, Professor of Politics and Director of Sheffield Political Economy Research Institute at the University of Sheffield\;\n\nJames Alexander Robinson\, Assistant Professor in the Department of Ethnic Studies with emphasis in Black Studies at the Metropolitan State University\, and curator of the Third Slavery archive for the Center for Social Solutions.\n\nWe send a special thank you to our co-sponsors of this event:\nLSA Office of Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion\nUM Law School's Human Trafficking Clinic (HTC)\nUM Poverty Solutions\nUM Rackham Graduate School\nGerald R.

SUMMARY:Auditions:Emancipation ≠ Freedom: Juneteenth Celebrate Freedom
DESCRIPTION:Juneteenth is a celebration of the emancipation of enslaved Africans in America.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Halal Metropolis
DESCRIPTION:The Halal Metrop­o­lis exhi­bi­tion\, by artist Osman Khan\, pho­tog­ra­pher Razi Jafri\, and his­to­rian Sally How­ell\, explores the facts\, fic­tions\, and imag­i­nar­ies of the Mus­lim population(s) in Detroit and South­east Michi­gan as viewed through his­tor­i­cal research\, doc­u­men­ta­tion of cur­rent con­di­tions\, and explo­rations of future desires. The Halal Metrop­o­lis alludes to the estab­lished and grow­ing Mus­lim pop­u­la­tion in Detroit and its metro area\, one of the largest and most diverse Mus­lim pop­u­la­tions in the U.S.\, whose vis­i­bil­ity is both pro­nounced and extremely present in the city\, yet whose nar­ra­tive seems unusu­ally silent in the larger Detroit story. The exhi­bi­tion blends archival mate­ri­als\, social and polit­i­cal arti­facts\, pho­tog­ra­phy\, and art to explore the con­gru­ent and con­tra­dict­ing ideas\, aes­thet­ics\, and cul­tures work­ing to make the halal metrop­o­lis both a real and imag­i­nary entity.\n\nFea­tur­ing works by:\n\nAmna Asghar\nQais Assali\nBGIRL MAMA\nNour Ball­out\nAdnan Charara\nKecia Escoe\nParisa Ghaderi\nAnthony Keith Giannini\nRazi Jafri\nOsman Khan\nMaamoul Press\nEndi Poskovic\nHaleem ​‘Stringz’ Rasul\nReem Taki\n\nThis exhi­bi­tion is pre­sented in part­ner­ship with the Uni­ver­sity of Michigan-Dearborn’s Cen­ter for Arab Amer­i­can Stud­ies (CAAS)\, with sup­port from the Knight Foun­da­tion\, the Doris Duke Foun­da­tion\, the Andy Warhol Foun­da­tion for the Visual Arts\, the El-Hibri Foun­da­tion\, the Com­mu­nity Foun­da­tion of SE Michi­gan\, and the Michi­gan Human­i­ties Council.
