Earlier this week I posted an example of a fake western blot provided by ThermoFisher to demonstrate the validity of a p53 antibody. I considered it an amusing curiosity. In fact ThermoFisher has systematically manipulated antibody validation data. Short Thread... 🧵

This is the way! Truly Open Science!
Exciting news! OpenTn5 is live on @biorXiv - we introduce our robust open-source protocol for producing multi-purpose Tn5 transposase. But what is Tn5? 🧵 1/11 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

we fused the rice Pong transposase protein to Cas9 or Cas12a programmable nucleases. We demonstrated sequence-specific targeted insertion (guided by the CRISPR gRNA) of enhancer elements, an ORF and a gene expression cassette into the genome of Arabidopsis nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

As it pertains to plant biotechnology, we Europeans find ourselves in a rather dim era. And today, just a bit more so. Quite literally! @IBMCP @k_sarkisyan nature.com/articles/d41586-0…
