In phenylketonuria, absence or malfunction of the phenylalanine hydroxylase enzyme results in toxic accumulation of phenylalanine in the body. An injectable recombinant enzyme therapy was recently approved and has the potential to improve the quality of li ...
One of the goals of synthetic biology is the development of an artificial cell. Building an artificial cell from scratch will provide a deeper understanding of fundamental mechanisms and models in biology and promises to contribute towards building novel p ...
The defined PURE (protein synthesis using recombinant elements) transcription-translation system provides an appealing chassis for cell-free synthetic biology. Unfortunately, commercially available systems are costly, and their tunability is limited. In co ...
Self-regeneration is a fundamental function of all living systems. Here we demonstrate partial molecular self-regeneration in a synthetic cell. By implementing a minimal transcription-translation system within microfluidic reactors, the system is able to r ...
Thanks to recent advancements in synthetic biology, the dream of creating a synthetic cell has become feasible. However, due to its inherent complexity, one of the fundamental functions of all living systems, i.e., self-replication, remains to be introduce ...
Cell-free systems have emerged as a versatile platform for constructing complex biological systems from the bottom-up. In particular, they enable the rapid engineering and characterization of gene regulatory networks, a critical cellular subsystem that all ...
Despite extensive research conducted to increase protein production from Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, cellular bottlenecks often remain, hindering high yields. In this study, a transcriptomic analysis led to the identification of 32 genes that are co ...
Synthetic protein switches are proteins that can be controlled by an external input, and are useful tools to probe protein function. Antibody fragments and antibody mimetics can be selected to bind, activate, or inhibit several diverse protein targets. Nev ...
Recent progress in protein engineering, empowered by the rapidly evolving fields of synthetic biology and DNA synthesis, has enabled the generation of various custom-designed proteins. Their thorough analysis has led to applications in areas including medi ...
Understanding complex responses of metabolic processes in biochemical systems requires the quantitative description of the dynamic interplay between metabolite levels, enzyme levels, and reaction rates. Generation and use of such models is hindered by the ...
