Premium
The authors of two newly published papers likened their method to Perturb-seq, except that it introduces structural variants instead of gene knockouts.
A method of "taming" recombinase activity through conditional activation improved target specificity and is being commercialized by Seamless Therapeutics.
Germline Mutagenesis Traced Back to Meiotic Breaks, Error-Prone Repair
By mapping mutations in relation to recombination hotspots, researchers revealed mutagenic effects of meiotic DNA breaks and error-prone repair mechanisms.
Lesaffre Acquires Recombia Biosciences
The deal builds on a strategic partnership between the firms that started in 2020 to design and develop yeasts to produce fermented ingredients and biofuels.
SARS-CoV-2 Result of Bat, Pangolin Virus Recombination, Purifying Selection, Study Suggests
The ancestor of a bat coronavirus may have obtained a receptor binding motif found among pangolin coronaviruses through a recombination event.
