Have you seen this WB from ThermoFisher?
Still anti-p53 antibody, but another clone (MA-12648 instead MA5-12557).
It also looks like that the band in lane 3 was rotated and reused in lane 4.
Moreover, it seems that same band was used for the 2 different clones.
Are you looking for a new challenge? We are looking for a Deep Learning Engineer. With this role you would set up deep learning infrastructures with the goal to understand genomes 🧬 and ageing 👵 .
Surprised to discover that Thermo Fisher appears to show a fake western blot for the validation of one of their p53 antibodies. I've added a diagram to show the very similar bands. This does not appear to be one of the "published figures" but their own internal data.

We're excited to welcome Leoš to Frankfurt soon! He'll be sharing fascinating insights about biological systems where start codons don't matter much, and stop codons make more sense than expected.
Don't miss his talk on June 16 at Campus Niederrad! #translation

It's our 12-year anniversary.
Grateful to work with a great group of young scientists in those years.
very proud of what we have done, and very thankful for sticking with our lab values in very tough times

TL;DR: We've identified more than 100 cases of apparent manipulation in Thermo Fisher Scientific's antibody verification data.
