• Biological wires carry electricity thanks to special amino acids

  Slender bacterial nanowires require certain key amino acids in order to conduct electricity, according to a study to be published in the  journal of the American Society for Microbiology. In nature, the bacterium Geobacter sulfurreducens uses these nanowires, called pili, to transport electrons to r more

• Analytical trick accelerates protein studies

  Researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison have found a new way to accelerate a workhorse instrument that identifies proteins. The high-speed technique could help diagnose cancer sooner and point to new drugs for treating a wide range of conditions.Proteins are not only numerous — humans hav more

• Evonik invests heavily in biotech

  Evonik Industries plans to continue expanding its commitment to biotechnology. “Biotech opens up interesting opportunities for profitable growth in a range of business areas,” says Patrik Wohlhauser, a member of the Executive Board. “It’s also giving Evonik’s growth strategy a stronger focus on sust more

  Fast, efficient and cost saving chromatography of various samples by application of a liquid stationary phase. Termination of disadvantages of the solid phase material used in classical chromatography. more

• Epitope Mapping Using the In Vitro Rapid Translation System RTS 100
  

  The Rapid Translation System (RTS) represents a cell-free system that allows efficient production of protein from linear DNA sequences. This article gives a brief outline of the use of the RTS technology in linear epitope mapping and shows its promise for reducing time-consuming cloning and cell-lysis steps. more

• Efficient Transfection of 293T Cell Line with Lentiviral Vectors Using FuGENE® HD Transfection Reagent
  

  Lentiviral vectors have become a powerful tool for gene transfer and genetic manipulation in research. Efficiency of the transfection reagent is most critical to getting a high-titer lentiviral recombinant virus. Here, we show that FuGENE® HD Transfection Reagent can be used to transfect 293T cells with lentiviral vectors with high efficiency. more

• Identification and characterization of endo-{beta}-N-acetylglucosaminidase from methylotrophic yeast Ogataea minuta

  In four yeast strains, Ogataea minuta, Candida parapolymorpha, Pichia anomala and Zygosaccharomyces rouxii, we identified endo-β-N-acetylglucosaminidase (ENGase) homologous sequences by database searches; in each of the four species, a corresponding enzyme activity was also confirmed in crude cell more

• The Rate of Molecular Adaptation in a Changing Environment

  It is currently unclear whether the amino acid substitutions that occur during protein evolution are primarily driven by adaptation, or reflect the random accumulation of neutral changes. When estimated from genomic data, the proportion of adaptive amino acid substitutions, called α, was found to v more

• The Evolution of the knirps Family of Transcription Factors in Arthropods

  The orphan nuclear receptor gene knirps and its relatives encode a small family of highly conserved proteins. We take advantage of the conservation of the family, using the recent prevalence of genomic data, to reconstruct its evolutionary history, identifying duplication events and tracing the int more
