Starting with the DNA sequence of a #phage genome, #PholdAPhage will create a 3D reconstruction of the complete phage, almost like you did cryoEM on it! Check out Renee's awesome software github.com/reneegreen81... to assemble unknown phage particles one protein at a time

A computer generated 3D reconstruction of a phage, based solely on its genome sequence. For this image, we started with the genome, and used PholdAPhage to create the structures. Colours are based on pLDDT scores.

SA politicians who just voted to restrict access to women's health care. They lost the vote but might be worth remembering who they are.

🦧📉 Why are there colorful apes in my #dataviz workshops? 📸 The photo taken years ago by my friend Richard Strozynski has become a tradition in my client projects and courses. I like to recolor it with different palettes to show how palette design affects perception. Thread 👇

A photograph of two apes (mother holds her child) and three recolored versions of the same phtograph using three palettes of different quality.

i have to say, as a trans journalist who has covered the "trans debate" for about a decade now, there is no daylight between how the trump administration and conservatives lie about tylenol and autism and how they've lied about youth trans care.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

🚨New Review Out🚨 We explore how phage-antibiotic synergy can dismantle efflux-driven resistance in multidrug-resistant ESKAPEE pathogens. By reprogramming bacterial defences, phages offer a precision strategy to restore antibiotic efficacy. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/...
