A new family of enzymes enables precise cuts in single-stranded DNA, offering powerful new tools for genetic engineering and expanding possibilities in biotechnology. (Nanowerk News) A few years ago, ...

Researchers at the University of Bristol have found a way to influence 'doodling'—a process where enzymes create DNA without a template—to produce strands far longer than those made by chemical ...

An INRS team discovers a new family of enzymes capable of inducing targeted cuts in single-stranded DNA . A few years ago, the advent of technology known as CRISPR was a major breakthrough in the ...

Inside every cell, a finely tuned metabolic network determines when to build, recycle, or stop producing essential molecules. A central part of this network is folate metabolism, a process that ...

Many mitochondrial diseases have been difficult to study and treat due to the inherent challenges in accessing mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Now, researchers have optimized mitochondrial-targeted ...

Genome editing has advanced at a rapid pace with promising results for treating genetic conditions—but there is always room for improvement. A new paper by investigators from Mass General Brigham ...

Researchers from the lab of Nobel laureate, David Baker, PhD, have now released RFdiffusion3 open source. The latest version of the de novo protein design model generates proteins that interact with ...
