Cell adhesion anyone? Looking for collaboration

[Wolfgang Schechinger]

Hi cell adhesion experts!

In a transfection experiment, I got NIH3T3 fibroblasts that don't 
adhere anymore but still seem to grow (do dead cells remain 
visible for four weeks and divide? ;-) 
Now I've found out that my transfection construct (A fusion
with a reporter, an epitope tag and my protein of interest) has a 
deletion right after my protein's start codon resulting in a 
frameshift and translation termination after some AAs. The cells  
have no longer worth for my project, but I don't want to throw them 
away.

If you think you could use these findings and if you are interested 
in collaborating, please let me know and drop a few lines by email!

If you think, that all is complete nonsense, please tell me, too!

I won't be in the lab the next three weeks, so please be patient 
waiting for a reply.

Cheers, 
Wolfgang
