In the future researchers are hoping to use genetic engineering to be able to overcome some inherited disorders, such as cystic fibrosis and Huntington's disease amongst others.
Genetic circuit engineering is the bottom-up, local approach to synthetic biology; to be distinguished from top-down, global genomic engineering. A major goal in synthetic development is to build ...
Scientists have uncovered surprising ways transcription factors, the genetic switches for genes, regulate plant development. Their findings reveal how subtle changes in a lipid-binding region called ...
Genetic engineering, also known as genetic modification, is a set of technologies used to change the genetic makeup of cells, including the transfer of genes within and across species boundaries to ...
Molecular biology, therefore requires a background in other disciplines such as chemistry, mathematics, physics and computer sciences. Principles from these disciplines underpin the new approaches ...
Genetic engineering is the act of modifying the genetic makeup of an organism. Modifications can be generated by methods such as gene targeting, nuclear transplantation, transfection of synthetic ...
molecular biology, and through genetic engineering. Our studies on the ecology and control of fungal pathogens, particularly those that are soilborne, has emphasized elucidating how these pathogens ...
