Delighted to share that the remarkable work of Qing Yao, with contributions from my group and many others, has been published in Nature Microbiology. 🧪 #cryoEM

This study reveals, for the first time, the structure of the binding pocket of HSV helicase-primase inhibitors and their mode of action.

Structural and mechanistic insights into herpesvirus helicase–primase and its therapeutic inhibitors - Nature Microbiology

The cryo-EM structure of the herpes simplex virus helicase–primase (HP) complex informs about the mechanism of action of HP inhibitors pritelivir and amenamevir, which are drugs of clinical relevance.

Defense is now questioning Lairmore on cross-examination. They show a video still of the sandwich and wrapper on the ground, post-throw.

"Do you recognize that sandwich?" the attorney asks.

Lairmore won't confirm.

"I did not go back to collect it," he says.

Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.

The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.

"I could smell the onions and mustard."

Also another example of the assertion all youth politics are somehow engineered by an algorithm rather than treating them as valid political actors.

ICE shot an American citizen and food bank worker who tried to block them arresting an immigrant by pulling his car in front of them.
After being released from hospital: "He is now facing charges for assault on a federal officer."
www.calonews.com/featured-top...

Carlos Jimenez, a 24-year-old U.S. citizen, was on his way to work at a food bank when he was shot by ICE officers in what a DHS spokesperson calls “defensive shots.”

On Thursday morning at approximately 6:30 a.m., ICE officers were at Vineyard Avenue in Ontario when Jimenez, who was not in the target vehicle, attempted to pull in front of the officers.

According to Javier Hernandez, executive director of the Inland Coalition for Immigrant Justice, Jimenez was trying to assist and provide aid to the person who was being stopped by ICE officers.

After Jimenez was shot in the shoulder, the LA Times and LA Taco reported that he drove to his brother’s house so he could take him to the hospital.

I made a video at the start of the government shutdown which said that they were not going to open it back up because a fascist state no longer needs the bureaucratic wing that pretends the people have any control.

The situation is as dramatic as it appears, & our response must reflect that.
