Genmab says choosing to insource cell-line development helped them to improve the antibody titers they were achieving.

Transposons, or 'jumping genes' -- DNA segments that can move from one part of the genome to another -- are key to bacterial evolution and the development of antibiotic resistance. Researchers ...

Transposons, or "jumping genes"—DNA segments that can move from one part of the genome to another—are key to bacterial evolution and the development of antibiotic resistance. Cornell ...

During the process, known as “conjugation,” one bacterial cell connects directly to another through a tiny tube that allows the transfer of genetic material fragments known as plasmids. Plasmids are ...

A critical transition in early human development is regulated not by our own genes, but by DNA elements called transposons that can move around the genome, Sinai Health researchers have found.

CDMO ProBio, the biologics subsidiary of GenScript, expanded its plasmid DNA and viral vector production capacity with the opening of new manufacturing facility in Hopewell, New Jersey.

CU Boulder researcher Edward Chuong recently received an international award for his lab’s work studying transposons in the human genome Our genome, it turns out, is full of freeloaders—selfish ...

More importantly, they could identify what caused it: a family of virus-like transposons called Mavericks. Nailing down a culprit: Mavericks as vectors of HGT "Mavericks were already known as a ...

Gene therapies rely on plasmid DNA (pDNA). Consequently, continued growth in gene therapies is inseparable from continued growth in pDNA manufacturing. That growth seems assured. According to ...

Thursday, BioNTech said it finished construction at its first proprietary plasmid DNA manufacturing facility in Marburg, Germany. Plasmids are a key building block for mRNA- and cell-based drugs ...

The culprit, they say, is an overabundance of 'jumping genes,' called transposons, that carry the genetic instructions for resistance from the cell's source code to plasmids that shuttle between ...

They can also suppress transposons, or “jumping genes” that may threaten the integrity of your genome. This discovery marks the first time that a horizontally transferred gene—that is, a gene acquired ...
