Scientists first observed the biological phenomenon of restriction and modification in the 1950s, but they did not identify and isolate restriction enzymes until the late 1960s. 3 In 1970, Hamilton ...

Genetic medicines R&D is making strides with more complex DNA molecules. While these long sequences of synthetic DNA are key for developing gene and cell therapies as well as antibodies and other ...

New obesity drugs could be inspired by discovery of an enzyme that controls both weight gain and cholesterol levels in animal ...

Inside a bioreactor in the laboratory of the France-based startup Carbios, pulverized PET plastic waste—the kind of plastic found in drink bottles and polyester clothing—is mixed with water and ...

With over 75 years of enzyme technology expertise, look no further than Worthington, the primary enzyme producer. Our extensive technical-resource library is the definitive source for primary cell ...

Chemical reaction cascades have been generated in a cell using an artificial enzyme as a catalyst. Let there be light: An artificial metalloenzyme (blue) penetrates a mammalian cell, where it ...

In biology, enzymes have evolved over millions of years to drive chemical reactions. Scientists have now derived universal rules to enable the de novo design of optimal enzymes. As an example, they ...

A team of researchers from Washington State University (WSU) and the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) has developed an artificial peptoid-based enzyme that can ...

Bruvi‘s B-pods take a novel approach that (probably correctly) assumes consumers are too lazy to return their aluminium pods to the manufacturer (looking at you, Nespresso), and too clumsy to do the ...
