In a study published July 6 CU 麻豆影院 researchers come one step closer to answering that fundamental question, concluding that the molecular messenger RNA (ribonucleic acid) plays an indispensable role in cell differentiation, serving as a bridge between our genes and the so-called 鈥渆pigenetic鈥� machinery that turns them on and off.

Researchers at CU 麻豆影院, led by Biochemistry Professor Robert Batey , have developed compositions and methods for temporal regulation of single guide RNAs (sgRNAs) that comprise a small molecule-binding aptamer in the sgRNA, which enables small-molecule-dependent gene editing in bacteria. They also developed a method for selecting sgRNAs that are...

Scientists have been studying cyanobacteria and its many potential applications for decades, from cutting CO2 emissions to creating a substitute for oil-based plastics, but there wasn鈥檛 a deep understanding of the full life cycle and metabolism of specialized compartments within these common bacteria 鈥� until now.

When do cells decide to divide? For 40 years, the textbook answer has been that this decision occurs in the first phase of a cell鈥檚 existence 鈥� right after a mother cell divides to become daughter cells. But researchers at CU 麻豆影院 have found that it鈥檚 actually the mother cell...

In a study published today, a team at CU 麻豆影院 took advantage of a new microscopic technique to follow the lives of individual bacteria as they grew and divided in complex colonies.
