📢DNA templates are no longer required for efficient nucleic acid ligation.
💡We introduce Charge-Transfer Assisted Ligation (CTAL): a new templated reactivity based on π-stacking donor–acceptor interactions (DAN/NDI), not base pairing.

Hi fellow membrane protein #StructuralBiology people!
Do you use maltoside detergents / model them in your stuctures? Watch out! ⚠️
Most PDB models of LMNG and GDN are wrong ❌, yet continue to be re-used. Spread the word!

I tried an even harder example on Gemini Pro image generation and this is quite scary/amazing. I asked for a microscopy image of around 20 HeLa cells, GFP tagged 20% nuclear, 10% membrane, +1 nuclear staining, + overlap. Image below and prompt in the following post.
