- Now, BTW, this should be a common knowledge, but students - if you are using antibodies to detect specific modifications on histone (or any other proteins), you should be aware of a possibility that the antibody recognition may be interfered with adjacent modifications. - 24/

An excellent perspective by @rosslevinemd on how COVID19 has impacted funding for discovery science in cancer biology and the potential to lose a generation of our brightest young scientists Cancer did not stay home for COVID-19

How many of you have binge-watched @netflix's brand-new series #Biohackers already? The eagle-eyed amongst you may have spotted some very familiar looking tech in Ep. 5!

The versatility and portability of the Nanopore seq tech never ceases to amaze me since I have seen it operate in the rainforest !
Due to it's portable nature, MinION Mk1C could be deployed in a pop-up lab environment for near-community #COVID19 testing using LamPORE. Find out more about LamPORE — a new generation of COVID-19 test — here: https://t.co/9qoxfYTeR4

Motivating words from @francesarnold, who was awarded the 2018 #NobelPrize in Chemistry. She was the fifth woman to be awarded the Chemistry Prize. She was awarded the prize "for the directed evolution of enzymes", which are proteins that catalyse chemical reactions.

Thanks @4DNucleome for the intro. Our new tool ( https://t.co/k11Ir4eJ3Y) enables interactive exploration of the 3D genome by integrating genomic data, microscopy image, and 3D structures. Massive amount of work by @nimezhu @zocean636, in collab w/ @belmont_andrew @jrswedlow.👇🏽1/6
Nucleome Browser from @jmuiuc is a multimodal, interactive data visualization and exploration platform to integrate genomic, imaging, and 3D structure data. https://t.co/splpbe9xzi

Update. The Cleveland Clinic has developed a COVID 19 test that gives results in 8 hours as opposed to the 2-3 days it takes for the other tests. They developed the test in NINE days, I repeat nine. Scientists worked 24/7 once the CDC gave them the okay on 3/2.

"If a beneficial mutation occurs at 'a cliff-edge', it is not likely to get far. But if it happens at a population edge by the bacterial equivalent of gently rolling hills, there is a much better chance of the mutation taking hold"

The place where a mutation happens can be much more important than whether the mutation is a help or a hindrance.
