Faster and brighter protein labeling with new tool SNAP-tag2

Self-labeling protein tags such as SNAP-tag offer the opportunity to attach bright and photostable synthetic fluorophores to proteins of interest for later analysis, and are widely used in biochemistry. Scientists at the ...

Key component to cell division revealed in 3D

Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have revealed the structure of a key protein involved in unspooling DNA so that it can undergo repair. Because this protein is critical for DNA repair for ...

Optogenetic screening platform for drug discovery introduced

A new study published in Cell has unveiled a first-of-a-kind optogenetic screening platform, developed by scientists at Integrated Biosciences, a biotechnology company integrating optogenetics, chemistry and AI to discover ...

Cutting to the core of how 3D structure shapes gene activity

In biology textbooks and beyond, the human genome and DNA therein typically are taught in only one dimension. While it can be helpful for learners to begin with the linear presentation of how stretches of DNA form genes, ...
