Silver nanoparticles can precisely slice DNA and create longer “sticky ends,” helping genetic fragments join up to five times ...
DNA synthesis is vital to several processes in biopharmaceutical innovation, including the development of gene therapies, CRISPR gene editing, antisense oligonucleotides and RNA therapies. The need ...
Nearly every cell in the human body contains essentially the same genetic information, yet different cells activate different ...
In our cells, countless RNA polymerase (RNAP) enzymes zip along our DNA, rotating and twirling in an elaborate molecular ...
Scientists often describe life as a series of chemical reactions. Pallav Kosuri, Ph.D., describes life as movement. Chemical ...
DNA-based methods dominate molecular cancer diagnostics but struggle to detect gene fusions and assess splice site consequences. RNA sequencing enables sensitive fusion detection and direct assessment ...
Nowadays, there's lots of buzz about spectacular new medical treatments such as personalised cancer therapy with modified immune cells or antibodies. Such treatments, however, are very complex and ...
With just a room-temperature “pot,” a sprinkling of molecules, and a simple electrical device, pathogen DNA detection can now be achieved in under an hour anywhere. This method creates ...
