Genetic engineering is the act of modifying the genetic makeup of an organism. Modifications can be generated by methods such as gene targeting, nuclear transplantation, transfection of synthetic ...

Yale researchers have created "Ochre," a genomically recoded organism that enables the production of synthetic proteins with ...

GROWING up, I remember my family often reminiscing about the fruits and vegetables of their youth. “They just do not taste the same anymore,” my mother would say as she bit into a store-bought tom ...

Potential delays in clinical trials may result in extended timelines for new drug approvals, and a sudden reduction in ...

Resistance to diseases could be introduced into susceptible crops using genetic engineering. Not only can this protect the crop, it can also safeguard farmers' livelihoods. An example is ...

Researchers say study provides sufficient rationale to further explore the therapeutic uses of SSRIs during infection.

Researchers find a master epigenetic switch that activates silenced genes to compensate for their missing counterparts in a ...

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 ...

Genetic engineering emerges as a means to induce the expression of different proteins and soluble factors with a wide range of applications, such as growth factors, cytokines, chemokines, ...
