This is shocking (but also not terribly surprising)! Blatant manipulation of antibody validation data on the Thermo website... As Mulder said, trust no-one 👽

How does #herpes hijack a human phosphatase to promote virus replication? We have a new @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social preprint showing how #HSV and #VZV use a novel motif to compete with canonical cellular #PP1 adaptors. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 🧵👇

Alphaherpesvirus pUL21 homologues use non-canonical motifs to compete with cellular adaptors for protein phosphatase 1 binding
Protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) is a key regulator of cellular phosphorylation and its activity is regulated via binding to cellular regulatory proteins via conserved short linear motifs (SLiMs). The herp...

Q for the hive-mind 🧠: What transfection reagents do people like for big constructs these days? (I am thinking #HSV encoding BACs, ~170 kb). We've recently had poor performance with Trans-IT LT1 and Lipofectamine 2000, our two go-tos. Target cells are U2OS. Suggestions or RTs greatly appreciated 🙏
