Genetic engineering is moving from the lab bench into clinics, farms, and even family planning decisions, promising to change ...

Deinococcus radiodurans can survive a range of harsh environments and is resistant to very high levels of ionizing and UV radiation, dehydration, cold, vacuum, and even acid. Therefore, the bacterium ...

Researchers describe minimal versatile genetic perturbation technology (mvGPT). Capable of precisely editing genes, activating gene expression and repressing genes all at the same time, the technology ...

About 70 people sat under the disco-ball-littered ceiling of the Varsity Theater in Dinkytown Tuesday evening – not to hear a concert, but to listen to a University professor talk about genetically ...

In white biotechnology, microorganisms serve as industrial bioreactors for large-scale production of fine chemicals, enzymes, active pharmaceutical ingredients, agro chemicals, and food additives. In ...

All the cells in an organism have the exact same genetic sequence. What differs across cell types is their epigenetics-meticulously placed chemical tags that influence which genes are expressed in ...

Gene-edited crops are no safer than GMOs, and fast-tracking regulatory approval could trigger a costly backlash.

The United States DNA polymerase market is projected to reach USD 246.9 million by 2035, supported by rising investments in ...
