The University of Washington team utilized GPT-4 to reasonably predict engineered yeast production through algorithmic models

1 year ago013 mins

Biomanufacturing technology based on synthetic biology can create novel creations in a flexible and diverse manner that have not been before. However, due to the complexity of biological systems, researchers have to rely on repeated experiments to cultivate and screen engineering microorganisms with superior performance. To reduce the number of experiments and improve the efficiency…

Effective Degradation of Antibiotics by Laccase Based Self Amplifying Catalytic System for Sustainable Environmental Remediation

1 year ago1 year ago027 mins

The accumulation of antibiotics in agricultural soils poses a potential threat to soil ecosystems and crop growth, ultimately posing a threat to human health. Tetracycline antibiotics (TCs), such as tetracycline (CTC), oxytetracycline (OTC), and tetracycline (TTC), are widely present in soil as antibacterial agents. Generally speaking, tetracycline is difficult to completely metabolize in the body,…

Multiple aspects of sulfur incorporation into natural product biosynthesis

1 year ago1 year ago018 mins

Sulfur-containing natural products (sulfur-containing NPs) cover almost every type of NP discovered so far. The source of sulfur in peptide NPs is usually composed of cysteine and methionine. Methionine can be directly incorporated into peptide NPs without any modification, such as precarriebowamide (1). The cysteine residues in peptide NPs are typically embedded in intramolecular disulfides,…

Wanda Fish has secured a new round of financing of $7 million to expand the production of bluefin tuna cell culture meat

1 year ago05 mins

According to incomplete statistics, there are no less than 150 global cell culture meat companies, most of which choose varieties with high consumption such as chicken and beef. However, there is also a problem. Currently, the cost and selling price of cell culture meat are much higher than the cost of breeding meat, which makes…

Spanish researchers have developed the smallest amiRNA that can reduce the cost of RNA pesticides and pave the way for large-scale production

1 year ago05 mins

RNA interference (RNAi) based biopesticides are considered a disruptive technology in the field of plant protection in the future, which will greatly change human thinking and strategies for controlling harmful organisms such as agricultural diseases, insects, and grasses. Although it has not yet been widely used, the cost of RNA production is high, and the…

Plant Promoters and Terminators in High Precision Bioengineering

1 year ago08 mins

High precision bioengineering and synthetic biology require fine-tuning of gene expression at the transcriptional and post transcriptional levels, and gene transcription itself is strictly regulated by promoters and terminators. Promoters include core promoters and distal promoters (Figure 1), which can determine the practice, organization, and cellular level of gene expression. The terminator is inserted into…

Amyris: kilogram level GMP synthesis of semi synthetic vaccine grade squalene

1 year ago05 mins

Since the 1990s, the lotion of triterpene squalene ((6E, 10E, 14E, 18E) -2,6,10,15,19,23-hexamethyl-tetraeicosane -2,6,10,14,18,22-hexene, CAS 111-02-4) has been used as an adjuvant of influenza vaccine. Other indications such as tuberculosis, malaria, schistosomiasis and leishmaniasis are being evaluated clinically. Except for aluminum oxide salts, squalene based emulsions are the most commonly used vaccine adjuvants in licensed…
