VectorBuilder, a global leader in gene delivery technologies and CDMO services, today announced the publication of the miniVec plasmid system, engineered for safer, more efficient, and more scalable ...

An international collaboration has achieved an important breakthrough in understanding the genetic mechanisms that allow bacteria to build resistance to drugs. Bacteria have multiple defence ...

Classical fluctuation and scattering theory has enabled the study of equilibrium properties such as molecular mass, size and intermolecular interactions of synthetic and biological macromolecules.

Some plasmids have been found to carry genes that kill their bacterial hosts after loss of the plasmid by vegetative segregation. This behavior appears at first to be purely spiteful because it does ...
