Researchers led by the University of Vienna and Liège University Hospital Center have identified genetic variants associated ...
A new CRISPR breakthrough shows scientists can turn genes back on without cutting DNA, by removing chemical tags that act like molecular anchors. The work confirms these tags actively silence genes, ...
Introduction: Recombinant nuclease (RSN) is a critical raw material enzyme essential for removing host nucleic acids during the production of cell and gene therapy products. However, the lack of ...
Dr. Comfort is a historian of genetics who is completing a biography of James Watson. At first, James Watson terrified me. It was 1991 and my first day as the science writer at Cold Spring Harbor ...
This is read by an automated voice. Please report any issues or inconsistencies here. James Dewey Watson, Nobel Prize winner and “semi-professional loose cannon,” died Thursday in hospice care after a ...
Molecular cloning relies on two key components to construct recombinant DNA: 1) a DNA vector and 2) one or more DNA fragments containing the gene(s) of interest (GOI). To produce a GOI fragment, DNA ...
The host cell system is a critical determinant of recombinant protein quality and yield, with direct influence on protein folding and post-translational modification factors that shape the ...
Eight healthy babies have been born in the U.K. using a new IVF technique that successfully reduced their risk of inheriting genetic diseases from their mothers, the people behind a world-first trial ...
Twenty-seven entreaties drafted and endorsed following discussions at the 50-year anniversary summit of the 1975 Asilomar Conference on Recombinant DNA have been published and archived at Rice ...
The AI2Health cluster of the Ken Kennedy Institute and the Synthetic Biology Institute at Rice University hosted a debriefing and collaborative discussion session on the Spirit of Asilomar summit June ...
