Credit: Surajit Chatterjee To better understand how RNA in bacteria gives rise to protein–and along the way, target these processes in the design of new antibiotics–researchers are turning their attention to the unique way this process happens in bacteria.

Scientists discover small RNA that regulates bacterial infection People with weakened immune systems are at constant risk of infection. But the bacteria can sometimes change their behavior and enter the bloodstream, causing chronic localized infections to become acute and potentially fatal. aeruginosa infections.

Study describes new mechanism for terminating transcription of DNA into RNA in bacteria Credit: Babitzke Laboratory and Dani Zemba, Penn State The protein, known as NusG, pauses the transcription machinery at specific DNA sequences to facilitate what is called “intrinsic termination” and prevent unwanted transcription that could disrupt (..)

In a step forward for genetic engineering and synthetic biology, US researchers have modified E coli bacteria to be immune to infection by all natural viruses tested so far. The team used two safeguard methods to prevent the bacteria and their modified genes from escaping into the wild.

The technology of gene therapy is possible due to extensive DNA research and our resulting understanding of many diseases on the genetic level, and it encompasses several mechanisms such as introducing new genes (gene addition) and inactivating or replacing mutated genes (gene editing). Formulation Considerations.

A naturally occurring system for tuning CRISPR-Cas9 expressing in bacteria, identified in a study published in Cell , could have implications for gene editing therapies as well. A CRISPR-Cas9 system has two components: the Cas9 guide RNA that directs the system to edit a particular gene, and the CRISPR “scissors” that make the cut.
