Tumour cells can be stably transfected with fluorescent proteins. Tumours and metastases that express fluorescent proteins can be visualized non-invasively in intact animals. Transgenic mice can ...

Plants store carbon in two primary forms: starch and triacylglycerols (TAGs). Starch is mainly stored in chloroplasts in ...

The discovery of DsRed (and other Anthozoa fluorescent proteins of various hues) had a twofold impact on the fluorescent protein engineering community. First, there is now a relatively diverse ...

The research team specifically asked their model to generate a new green fluorescent protein—other such proteins, which fluoresce under ultraviolet light, are often used as markers. The team ...

AI systems already work their magic in many areas of biomedical science, helping to solve protein structure, discover hidden ...

For patients with polycystic kidney disease (PKD), a common genetic disorder that ravages the waste-removing organ with cysts ...

Gene syntax also affects the behavior of genetic circuits, and contributes to unpredictable outcomes in genetic networks.

Poeschla and colleagues used a modified virus to transfer the green fluorescent protein gene into cat egg cells. The green marker allowed them to visualize their real target: a monkey-derived protein ...
