The remaining 8% of the genome was often referred to as the dark matter of the genome or sometimes even ‘Junk DNA’ 2. The sequencing technology relied on could only yield sequences of relatively short DNA fragments, so the assembly of sequences from highly repetitive regions was a huge challenge.

The tool targets the epigenome, the collection of DNA modifications in a cell such as methylation and post-translational histone modifications. These modifications regulate gene expression without altering the sequence or structure of DNA. DNA methylation occurs endogenously in all mammalian cells in response to various stimuli.

The drugmaker is targeting various steps in the manufacturing process, beginning right at the DNA stage, which is required as the template from which the mRNA for the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein in the vaccine is made. This involves testing and quality assurance of the DNA to make sure its integrity meets the strict vaccine requirements.

To overcome this evasion tactic, the CAR protein was developed to recognise other markers on cancer cells. CAR is a fusion protein composed of an extracellular antibody fragment that recognises antigens and an intracellular domain that directs the T cell to the tumour. Identifying the right CAR T cell target.

The Flu versus COVID-19: Virology and Vaccines SARS-CoV-2 versus Influenza Virology Viruses contain genetic material that can either be RNA or DNA. This means COVID-19 can quickly produce viral proteins once inside the host cell, which may make its replication cycle faster than influenza. remains the dominant variant.

Simultaneously, the capacity to conjugate fluorescent molecules to proteins to better characterise biological systems has evolved accordingly, enabling the proliferation of highly specific tools to interrogate cells. Setting up proper single-colour controls is critical to obtaining good compensation and spectral unmixing matrices.
