Scientists at the Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology (IMBB-FORTH) and the University of Crete, together with ...

Transcription and translation are processes a cell uses to make all proteins the body needs to function from information stored in the sequence of bases in DNA. The four bases (C, A, T/U, and G in the ...

Key market opportunities in the global competent cells market include rising demands in genetic engineering and synthetic ...

A newly developed luciferase-based reporter can detect problems in protein translocation and disulfide bond formation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Inspired by natural mechanisms found in ...

In recent years, mammalian synthetic biology has made significant strides, especially in controlling gene expression and designing complex cellular behaviors. Researchers have now begun to apply these ...

Researchers demonstrated how amino acids could spontaneously attach to RNA under early Earth-like conditions using thioesters, providing a long-sought clue to the origins of protein synthesis. This ...

Chemists at University College London have shown how two of biology's most fundamental ingredients, RNA (ribonucleic acid) and amino acids, could have spontaneously joined together at the origin of ...

The FDA approval of denileukin diftitox (Lymphir) marked a significant shift in this paradigm. As a first-in-class immunotoxin, it employs a dual-action mechanism: directly targeting interleukin-2 (IL ...
