From the tropics to the lab: New yeasts could transform industry

Yeast cells can be used to convert agricultural and forestry residues, as well as industrial byproducts, into valuable bioproducts. New and unexplored yeast strains may have properties that can enhance the commercial competitiveness ...

Protein design: Flexible components allow new architectures

Artificially designed proteins are usually based on building blocks that obey strict rules of symmetry. As such, their structure can generally be predicted using computer simulations. But there are exceptions: Some proteins ...
