A new study from Weill Cornell Medicine provides insights into how cells maintain the tiny end caps of chromosomes as they ...

The first-ever synthetic multicellular organism is ready to come to life after a Sydney breakthrough 10 years in the making.

Instead of the linear chromosomes found in mammals, the team crafted a circular chromosome, which is compatible with DNA replication in yeast. They then assembled the HAC inside budding yeast. By ...

Mumbai: A team of researchers from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT-B) has shed light on how a seemingly ...

Researchers have generated a full-length clone of the novel coronavirus genome using artificial chromosomes in brewers’ yeast, according to a paper published in Nature on Monday (May 4). While other ...

We were looking for another system and discovered if we just used an artificial yeast centromere we could convert bacterial genomes into yeast chromosomes. Work led by Gwyn Benders allows us to ...

Scientists have engineered a chromosome entirely from scratch that will contribute to the production of the world’s first synthetic yeast. Researchers in the Manchester Institute of Biotechnology (MIB ...

He is also credited with the construction of the world’s first yeast artificial chromosome. That feat helped scientists to map the location of genes in mammals and to develop techniques for ...

To tackle the conundrum, Yingjin Yuan, a professor of biochemical engineering at Tianjin University, turned to deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and has designed yeast artificial chromosomes as a ...
