Many gene therapy developers use viral vectors that exhibit specific tissue tropism as delivery vehicles, meaning they preferentially infect certain tissues to deliver the gene therapy cargo ...

Our project aims to enhance the use of adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) as gene therapy vectors, the student will learn to make these viruses and modify them to improve their therapeutic capacity, ...

But mapping which microbes participate in gene transfer has been challenging. This new technique gives us a direct way to record this information inside the cells themselves." ...

Ear tissue punch regeneration has previously been studied in specific strains of Murphy Roths Large mice that have the ability to close 2-mm ear punches with scar-free regeneration.

A new study has shown that virus-like transposons, called Mavericks, are responsible for horizontal gene transfer (HGT) in nematodes. Researchers led by Alejandro Burga at the Austrian Academy of ...

In the microscopic world of bacteria, gene transfer is a powerful mechanism that can alter cellular function, drive antibiotic resistance and even shape entire ecosystems. Now an interdisciplinary ...
