Genetic engineering in non-human primates has long been limited by the need for virus-based gene delivery methods. Recently, ...

Fluorescent proteins have come along way since the discovery of GFP from the jellyfish Aequorea victoria in the early 1960s. Today, both natural and engineered fluorescent proteins come in a ...

Japanese researchers used a nonviral piggyBac system to genetically modify cynomolgus monkeys, enabling more accurate disease ...

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 ...

A research team has developed an innovative technique that enables precise modification of specific proteins within complex ...

Bio-conjugation techniques utilizing proteins, such as attaching fluorescent markers to identify cancer cells, are actively ...

Artificial cells using riboswitch-gene fusion in liposomes produce fluorescent proteins when detecting specific targets.

Genetic engineering in non-human primates has long been limited by the need for virus-based gene delivery methods. Recently, ...

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 ...

1 This was the first example of a light-activated protein, which they called a photoprotein. I wanted to have a tool like this. I thought this would be wonderful. —Martin Chalfie, Columbia University ...

In the microscopic world of bacteria, gene transfer is a powerful mechanism that can alter cellular function, drive ...
