Back by popular demand for 2024: The #Oscars as things seen in science.

First up, Sam Rockwell as a failed PCR

[Waldan Kwong @wk_kwong]

I'm hiring a research technician, to work with🦠,🧬,🐝, among other things. Interested? More information here: https://t.co/e2IUwm2arV

[PLOS Genetics @PLOSGenetics]

New research on horizontal transfers:

Smith et al study #bacteria genes in aphid symbionts via comparative #genomics

They find aphid horizontally-acquired genes work independently from one another

Are you sure you know what's in your plasmid?

Find even more junk in your plasmids with the newly updated https://t.co/jyyOgz5j9H

Updates include:
• new "detailed annotation" mode
• expanded databases
• bug squashing
• overall better annotation

@SGribaldo @courtney0thomas @NikaPende @PierreSGarcia @BasileBeaud @Rob_Smith743 Amazing!!! 😍

[Julie Perreau, PhD @jmaperreau]

Moved to the East Bay last week and today is my first day @berkeley_lights! So excited for this next chapter in my science career.

@christo71213435 @mcsymbiont I should mention that the original plasmids from that paper, which insert a kanamycin resistance cassette in addition to GFP, didn’t work for me. I instead used plasmids from Wiles et al 2018 (pTW56, https://t.co/CZx68wFw1x…) that additionally inserted a gentamicin cassette.

[Julie Perreau, PhD @jmaperreau]

@christo71213435 @mcsymbiont I used mini-Tn7, so it inserted at the attTn7 site, as in this paper: https://t.co/gBAViCUA24. Added a PA1 promoter sequence in cloning.

[Julie Perreau, PhD @jmaperreau]

@mcsymbiont I made one with GFP integrated! You would have to contact Nancy and Eli since I’m no longer there, but it is well labeled in my frozen stocks. I could pass them the info.

[Simonetta Gribaldo @SGribaldo]

Dear all, the Gribaldo lab at Institut Pasteur Paris has a post-doctoral position immediately available to work on cell growth and division in our new model Methanobrevibacter smithii. Check out our recent paper. https://t.co/4rTHKA94CR Please RT. Thanks! #archaea #cellbiology

@lipidguy The Origin and Evolution of Bacterial Symbionts of Aphids ✨

[Julie Perreau, PhD @jmaperreau]

Got my nails done for the occasion. With golden aphids 💕

[Arkadiy Garber @theironark]

Very excited for this pre-print, describing Pseudofinder, a software for pseudogene-prediction in bacteria and archaea! A really fun project with @mcsymbiont, @FilipHusnik, @pjkeelinglab, and Mitch Syberg-Olsen.
