Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) refers to the transfer of genes between organisms in a manner other than traditional reproduction. Also termed lateral gene transfer (LGT), it contrasts with ...

Human artificial chromosomes (HACs ... This innovation simplifies the previously labor-intensive methods of gene loading and transfer, making it easier to conduct functional assays in human ...

This manuscript describes an important finding of the transcriptional control of a chimeric gene transfer agents (GTA) cluster in Bartonella by a processive anti-termination factor (BrrG). The ...

Tewhey and his associates examined the novel artificial intelligence (AI) - designed synthetic CREs by introducing them into ...

In the field of synthetic biology, creating artificial gene circuits with predictable ... and her team investigated the transfer of ECF switches from E. coli to the α-proteobacterium ...

Researchers are enhancing the best features of AAV capsids and overcoming their limitations to accelerate gene-based therapies.

Key findings highlight the role of horizontal gene transfer, the incorporation of foreign bacterial genetic material into the beetle genome, which is thought to be the result of earlier symbioses.

Risks of genetic engineering: Transfer of the selected gene into other species. What benefits one plant may harm another. Some people believe it is not ethical to interfere with nature in this way.
