Lima’s research revealed unprecedented insights underlying post-translational protein modification by ubiquitin-like proteins through creative isolation of key intermediates in these pathways. His pioneering research in RNA biology resolved molecular bases for co-transcriptional RNA processing, RNA ligation and 3´to 5´ RNA decay activities of the multi-subunit eukaryotic RNA exosome.
