Cas13: Cas9's Cool Detective Cousin
VideoThis animation depicts how Cas13—a CRISPR-associated protein—may be adapted to detect human disease. This new diagnostic tool, called SHERLOCK, targets RNA (rather than DNA), and has the potential to transform research and global public health.
Bacterial DNA Jiggling Motion Halted Before Cell Death
VideoWatch how the jiggling motion of bacterial DNA stops when a natural antimicrobial peptide permeates the E. coli membrane. This novel mechanism helps explain why bacteria develop resistance very slowly and may inform the design of new antimicrobial agents.
Understanding P-gp and BCRP Inhibition Assay Design and Outcomes
