Science Today | The Most Detailed Human Cell Map Ever Created

UC San Diego scientists, together with Stanford, Harvard, and UBC, have built the most detailed map of a human cell ever made — combining high-resolution imaging, protein–protein interaction data, and AI tools like GPT-4 to chart how thousands of proteins assemble and function inside U2OS cells.

The atlas revealed 975 previously unknown protein functions, 275 protein assemblies, and hidden molecular structures linked to childhood cancers. By locating mutated proteins on the map, the team identified 21 assemblies frequently altered in pediatric tumors, highlighting shared cellular machinery disrupted across cancers.

This interactive map offers a new way to explore cells — letting researchers zoom through protein communities like a molecular Google Maps. More importantly, it provides a blueprint for mapping other human cell types and uncovering how poorly understood proteins contribute to disease.

✨ Employee Spotlight: Armita ✨

Meet Armita, a Co-op on abm’s cloning team! She has been with abm since September and is currently a fourth-year Microbiology and Immunology student at the University of British Columbia.

In her role, Armita works on plasmid transformation into bacterial hosts and DNA extraction for customer shipments. She also supports custom cloning projects, including PCR, ligation, and gel extraction—helping ensure high-quality results for our customers.

Outside of work, Armita enjoys staying active through regular gym training and occasional Pilates classes. She’s also been learning piano in her free time 🎹

Fun fact: Armita is an executive member of a cultural club at UBC and recently helped organize a large-scale Yalda (winter solstice) celebration with over 300 attendees—an impressive event celebrating culture and community!

We’re so glad to have Armita on the team 💙

🎗️ January is Cervical Cancer Awareness Month!

At abm, we’re advancing cervical cancer research with a diverse cell line collection spanning normal and cancerous cervical models. 📣 From HPV-immortalized cervical epithelial cells to gene-edited cancer cell lines, our collection enables studies on HPV infection, tumor progression, and new therapies.

🔬 Highlights include:
🔹 T0595 | https://buff.ly/Bvh1lYT – Immortalized Human Endocervical Epithelial Cells (HPV16 E6/E7; A2EN) – a durable normal cervical model for infection and immunity studies.
🔹 T6274 | https://buff.ly/cJJMb2E – SiHa Cervical Carcinoma Cells with a Ubiquitin-GFP proteasome reporter – for monitoring protein degradation in HPV16⁺ cancer cells
🔹 T3980 | https://buff.ly/KwcbCOH – IFNAR1 Knockout HeLa Cells – a cervical cancer model used to unravel type I interferon signaling pathways

… and more in our catalog.

👋 Meet Lucy, one of our co-op students at abm!

Lucy is currently three months into her eight-month co-op term, where she’s gaining hands-on industry experience while continuing her Biology studies at UBC. As a student still building her scientific foundation, this role has been a great opportunity for Lucy to apply what she’s learned in school and explore new areas within the field.

Outside of work, Lucy loves spending time on the slopes 🏂. Snowboarding is one of her favourite winter activities (and she wishes she could go more often!). She also enjoys journaling ✍️, using it as a way to slow down, reflect, and appreciate the little moments in everyday life.

✨ Fun fact: Lucy started collecting Smiski blind boxes 📦 long before they became popular online!

🚀 Spotlight: Featuring Dr. Leona Ogene!

✨ Meet Dr. Leona Ogene (), a biomedical engineer using her platform to help future scientists feel seen, supported, and confident in their path. As a first-generation scholar and neurodivergent researcher, Leona’s journey into regenerative medicine shows the power of perseverance, self-advocacy, and representation in STEM.

🔬 Her work focuses on tissue engineering and cartilage repair — but what really sets her apart is how she breaks down what it actually looks like to navigate a PhD while managing ADHD, dyslexia, and the pressures of academia.

Understanding SYBR Green-Based qPCR 🧬

SYBR Green-based qPCR is a widely used technique for detecting and quantifying DNA by measuring fluorescence during amplification. By binding to double-stranded DNA, SYBR Green enables real-time monitoring of PCR product formation - making it a simple, sensitive, and cost-effective approach for gene expression analysis. Watch our full video on YouTube to learn more.

Science Today | Gene Therapy Breakthrough 🌱

No more transplants? Scientists found a tiny window right after birth when blood stem cells circulate freely — and they used it to deliver healthy genes directly with viral vectors.

In mouse models, this in vivo therapy corrected immune deficiencies, bone disease, and marrow failure — offering hope for conditions like ADA-SCID and Fanconi anemia.

From risky transplants to simple injections, this discovery could rewrite how we treat genetic blood disorders.

⚡️ Mesothelial cells built for the long haul!
🔗 https://buff.ly/MJqr2lM

ABM’s Immortalized Human Mesothelial Cells – HPV E6/E7 (Cat. No. T0456) is a ready-to-use human mesothelial cell line derived from normal mesothelial tissue and immortalized by HPV-16 E6/E7 genes. These cells deliver a stable model of mesothelial biology—offering continuous growth and confirmed expression of mesothelial markers—so you can skip the time and effort of generating your own primary line.

✨ Ready-made cell line – no need to immortalize primary mesothelial cells yourself
✨ Characterized & stable – mesothelial marker expression verified, suitable for extended culture
✨ Adherent and reliable – validated for routine culture workflows
✨ Ideal for modeling mesothelial biology in a consistent, reproducible format

Save time and standardize your research!
