We are talking about the microbiome – the vast collection of bacteria in the human gut. The microbiome has been the focus of research for 20 years – ever since a new technique made it possible to analyse these bacteria quickly and precisely: high-throughput sequencing. In doing so, they induce epigenetic changes.

Verge Genomics’ potential amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) treatment VRG50635 is one of the first drugs to enter clinical trials that was entirely discovered and developed using an AI-enabled platform 6. Automation is also being applied to genomics sample preparation, an area that requires particular robustness and scalability.

New Class of Antibiotic Works Against Range of Bacteria. They focused on a metabolic pathway essential for bacteria but absent in humans, called methyl-D-erythritol phosphate (MEP) or non-mevalonate pathway, which is responsible for biosynthesis of isoprenoids. Isoprenoids are required for cell survival in most pathogenic bacteria.

With 100-fold the number of genes in the human genome 1 , this microbial collection is a rich genetic signature of clinical significance that we have only recently gained the tools to explore. Genome editing tools such as CRISPR may be employed to create “live biotherapeutics” (drugs composed of living bacteria).

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. In bacteria with unaltered tracr-L, levels of CRISPR-related genes were low. The authors found that tracr-L redirects Cas9 in S.

The immune system typically identifies foreign entities such as bacteria and viruses and activates lymphocytes such as T cells to destroy them with overwhelming force. Cells from solid tumours are genetically heterogeneous both between and within tumours, making it challenging to identify a single, selective antigen target for treatment.
