Humans are not the first to repurpose CRISPR
A recent study discovers that CRISPR can be used for a number of different purposes by diverse biological entities, not just humans and bacteria.
A single drug therapy to fight resistant cancers
One drug, three modes of action: Clinicians combat the drug resistances of some cancer types by using a combination of different drugs.
Moving messengers making their way to the limelight
Every gene found in our DNA exerts its action via the activity of its encoded protein product. However, the synthesis of the protein cannot take place directly from the gene. An intermediate messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule is first produced from the gene via a process...
Remember your PIN? Researchers create a molecular code to encrypt data
Researchers solve some of the drawbacks related to DNA-based information storage by using synthetic macromolecules as an alternative for data encoding.
When chemistry becomes intelligent
An automated microfluidics‐based reaction system provides hands-off synthesis for the modern lab.
CRISPR-HOT: A new tool to visualize cells
A new take on CRISPR allows researchers to “paint” cells and observe never-before-seen cellular processes in great detail.
Developing artificial enzymes using computers
Artificial enzymes promise to not only help us understand the complex functioning of enzymes, but will create a new generation of biosystems for sustainable chemistry practices.
Improving how we image cells using carbon dots
Fluorescent carbon dots could change the way in which we visualize cells.
The paradox of dormancy: Why sleep when you can eat?
What is the advantage of laying eggs that are expensive to produce and take a long time to hatch? Perhaps there is more to this paradox then we originally thought.
