Optimal knock-down can be done by a shRNA sequence that depends on the gene expression level and the cell type. Usually, 4 shRNA should be tested to find the one inducing a minimum of 70% increase of the

ORF expression in Mammalian cells is very useful for many applications: protein production with HEK293, over-expression of tagged protein for immuno-tracking or immuno-precipitation, development of a cell

Gene knock-out, which is gene editing leading to loss of function, just requires delivering into cells the 2 CRISPR system actors: the CAS9 endonuclease and the specific guide RNA to target

This month, a new leap forward in gene editing has been published in Nature under the title 'Search-and-replace genome editing without double-strand breaks or donor DNA'. DOI: 10.1038/s41586-019-1711-4.

Genes are key components of our lives. With many other factors, they contribute to shaping us, making people and any other living organism what they are. Genomes, whether human or not, are able

Peptide advances in biomedicine

Peptides, which are short chains of amino acids, have gained significant attention in biomedicine due to their diverse applications. Their unique properties, such
