The clustered regularly interspaced short palindrome repeats (CRISPR) and Crispr-associated protein 9 (CRISPR/Cas9) is now a well-known, revolutionary method to engineer microbial cells. A key ...

RNA Institute scientists are pioneering new methods for designing and assembling DNA nanostructures, enhancing their potential for applications in medicine, materials science and data storage ALBANY, ...

Silver nanoparticles provide a more efficient way to cut and assemble DNA, improving recovery rates and boosting DNA joining ...

Scaffolded DNA and RNA origami is a technique that allows scientists to build tiny, highly precise two- and three-dimensional ...

Molecular instructions in living cells can be timed rather like the notes or chords in a piece of music. For example, a finite number of genes can be activated and expressed in different orders, for ...

How does your body produce millions of antibodies from one genome? New research reveals how two closely related proteins help ...

Large-scale DNA assembly stands as a foundational pillar in synthetic biology, empowering genomic engineering capabilities from targeted modifications to de novo genome synthesis. This technique ...

DNA, the medium of life, is so deeply associated with the biochemical world that considering its nonbiological applications may seem far-fetched. However, for researchers in the 1980s and 1990s ...

Boston Consulting Group predicts that the size of the global bioeconomy will be $30 trillion by the end of the decade. One of the instrumental drivers of its rapid growth was the reduction of the cost ...
