On my desk to read today? A couple of new cell-based screen-related papers--one of which systematically tests orthologs of candidate genes culled from fly screens in human cells--and a report on recombinases newly available for use in Drosophila. The report on recombinases is not directly relevant to fly RNAi but I'm including it because what's described should be of general interest to Drosophila researchers--yet another new tool in our ever-growing molecular genetic toolbox.
