Postdoc in Carvalho lab, @Dunnshool.bsky.social Oxford, working on lipid droplet biogenesis and membrane proteins. Don't take life too seriously - its your only one.

New from @MorieLAB.bsky.social! Neutral Lipids restrict DNA mobility!! 1. This has important implications for DNA repair in vivo, 2. also in vitro when you measure DNA breaks using the comet assay, beware! 3. And, we provide a fast new protocol overcoming this issue 😍 doi.org/10.1111/boc....

Neutral lipids restrict the mobility of broken DNA molecules during comet assays

This study reveals that neutral lipids (NL), naturally present in cells, become trapped within genomic DNA as a consequence of the standard execution of the comet assay, a technique used to measure D...
