New approach to enhance cell-free biosynthesis with engineered yeast extracts

Think of cells as tiny factories: within their walls they have both the machinery to make products such as proteins, and the mechanisms for maintenance to keep processes running smoothly.

Stanford researchers use machine learning approach to solve structural biology challenges

Determining the 3D shapes of biological molecules is one of the hardest problems in modern biology and medical discovery. Companies and research institutions often spend millions of dollars to determine a molecular structure – and even such massive efforts are frequently unsuccessful.

Researchers develop a method to engineer new functionalities into cells

Researchers at the Institute of Molecular Biology and Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz have developed a method to engineer new functionalities into cells. The results were published today in the journal Cell in the article "Dual film-like organelles enable spatial separation of orthogonal eukaryotic translation".

Novel method improves the resolution of hard X-ray nanotomography

It's been a truth for a long time: if you want to study the movement and behavior of single atoms, electron microscopy can give you what X-rays can't. X-rays are good at penetrating into samples -; they allow you to see what happens inside batteries as they charge and discharge, for example -; but historically they have not been able to spatially image with the same precision electrons can.

Study unravels new aspects of prions causing untreatable neurodegenerative conditions

A new study achieved the highest-ever resolution imaging of an infectious prion, offering atomic-level data of how these abnormal proteins assemble.

Study devises novel process to purify exosomes from cow’s milk

Cells produce exosomes, the nano-sized biological capsules, to protect and courier delicate molecules across the body. The capsules are hard enough to resist enzymatic breakdown and acidic and temperature fluctuations in the bloodstream and gut, which makes them a major candidate for drug delivery.

Researchers report several compounds responsible for coffee’s distinctive mouthfeel

Coffee drinkers intuitively recognize the pleasure of swallowing a smooth, rich brew versus a watery one. Aside from added cream or sugar, the coffee itself contributes to this sensation -; referred to as body or mouthfeel -; but the specific compounds are not well defined.
