Judy Coulson @LivUni and co-workers report that the #deubiquitinase OTUD6B stabilises #kinesin KIFC1, to support pseudo-bipolar #spindle formation and to regulate KIFC1-dependent #centrosome clustering and #BreastCancer cell survival.

We’re ending free movement to open Britain up to the world.

It will ensure people can come to our country based on what they have to offer, not where they come from.

Well said! #COVID19

When this is all over, I hope humanity has learned its lesson on what to prioritize! #medicine #science #cures #all4one #covid19

[Chromatin labeling and imaging @AndImaging]

The answer to the question what is the lowest concentration you can use for staining is picomolar (pM). See selective centrosome staining using 4-TMR-LTX (yellow) at 60 pM concentration! Magenta is DNA. https://t.co/Cu27XbkCpo Movie dedicated to @CentrioleLab 😀

I love both Ireland and England but sometimes there are reminders that there's a greater sense of community - and kindness - in our smaller country. The difference between these two Mail headlines is an example - one designed to instil fear, the other capturing the national mood
