Targeted drug delivery is a powerful and promising area of medicine. Therapies that pinpoint the exact areas of the body ...

The body uses protein-based molecular motors to perform functions essential to life. Now, researchers have created ‘The Lawnmower,’ the first synthetic motor modeled on those found in nature that ...

For decades, synthetic biologists have been developing gene circuits that can be transferred into cells for applications such ...

Creating synthetic proteins is a promising avenue of study, but could we take shortcuts on nature’s blueprint and make more efficient versions? Scientists at UC Berkeley have found that simpler combos ...

University of Utah chemists create a synthetic antifreeze protein mimicking fish blood to prevent ice formation.

After studying the diversity of mobile elements in the genome to feed and train generative AI tools, researchers have been ...

Synthetic biologists from Yale were able to re-write the genetic code of an organism - a novel genomically recoded organism (GRO) with one stop codon - using a cellular platform that they developed ...
