Dear Colleagues,
Since last September, we (Dr. Valadares and me) had a long way to communicate with the JBC journal, and it is a very unpleasant process. Finally, our eLetter got published with the authors’ reply. Our eLetter: doi: 10.1074/jbc.L116.765933 and their reply doi: 10.1074/jbc.L116.760678 A clever reply with no detailed explanation for our concerns and no corrections were made to their so-called flaws, even they knew it. Now, it seems nothing we can do with this flawed paper. It is strange that this can be tolerated by the journal with such a good reputation. best, James
