The National Institute for Innovation in Manufacturing Biopharmaceuticals (NIIMBL) is pleased to announce a Request for ...

The global viral vector and plasmid DNA manufacturing market size is calculated at USD 8.66 billion in 2025 and is expected ...

With the flurry of media attention surrounding the race to sequence the genome, it often seems as if the myriad genome facts and news items floating around could fill up a couple of telephone books.

A gene therapy to correct a mutation that causes maple syrup urine disease prevented newborn death and normalized growth in a calf as well as in mice.

Researchers can insert DNA fragments or genes into a plasmid vector, creating a so-called recombinant plasmid. This plasmid can be introduced into a bacterium by way of the process called ...

Figure 1: Expression of reporter gene constructs derived from the gcy-5, lim-6 and lsy-6 genes. One potential explanation for our observations is that the vector backbone may dictate the packaging ...

“It really does seem that human genome sequence data from somatic cells show signs of LGT events from bacteria, and so do cancer cells,” said Jonathan Eisen from University of California, Davis, who ...

In addition, first-generation CRISPR systems (Cas9 and Cas12a) are too large for efficient in vivo delivery via a single adeno-associated viral (AAV) vector. Now, new preclinical research ...

DNA is the molecule that holds the instructions for all living things. DNA achieves this feat of storing, coding and transferring biological information though its unique structure. Replication of ...

The DNA of interest is first isolated, then combined with a carrier DNA molecule called a vector, which is then introduced into the host organism. Gene editing techniques, such as CRISPR-Cas9, allow ...
