The new workstation, which will run in parallel to another CyBio workstati more

• How does the lowly bacterium sense its environment?

  When humans taste or smell, receptors unique to each nerve cell detect the chemical and send signals to the brain, where many cells process the message to understand what we are smelling or tasting. But a bacterium is just a single cell, and it must use many different receptors to sense and interpre more

• Optimization of Transfection Conditions for Gene Expression, siRNA Knock-Down, and Live Cell Imaging Using FuGENE® HD Transfection Reagent
  

  The experimental method of introducing foreign mole­cules into cells is an important tool to facilitate studies in various biological fields. Transfection using lipophilic methods (liposomes or other cationic species) is a convenient means of introducing many different types of molecules (plasmid DNA, RNA, siRNA, and miRNA) into eukaryotic cells [1,2]. However, the optimal condition for incorporation depends on the type of transfection reagent and the cells being used, resulting in variable transfection efficiency and the extent of cell damage caused by transfection. more

• Three-dimensionally designed protein-responsive RNA devices for cell signaling regulation

  The three-dimensional (3D) structures of many biomacromolecules have been solved to reveal the functions of these molecules. However, these 3D structures have rarely been applied to constructing efficient molecular devices that function in living cells. Here, we demonstrate a 3D structure-based mol more

• Insights into how nucleotide supplements enhance the peroxidase-mimicking DNAzyme activity of the G-quadruplex/hemin system

  Since the initial discovery of the catalytic capability of short DNA fragments, this peculiar enzyme-like property (termed DNAzyme) has continued to garner much interest in the scientific community because of the virtually unlimited applications in developing new molecular devices. Alongside the ex more

• Near instrument-free, simple molecular device for rapid detection of herpes simplex viruses

  The first near instrument-free, inexpensive and simple molecular diagnostic device (IsoAmp® HSV, BioHelix Corp., MA, USA) recently received US FDA clearance for use in the detection of herpes simplex viruses (HSV) in genital and oral lesion specimens. The IsoAmp HSV assay uses isothermal helicase-de more
