  1. #Extremophiles that can digest #radiation ☢️ and toxicities are already used to clean up everything from oil spills to the fallout of radioactive sites.

    This means we could #engineer microbes that are resistant to freezing ❄️ temperatures and high levels of radiation.

    Given that #microbes 🦠 helped make Earth habitable, we could use synthetic #biology to engineer microbes to speed up a similar process for #Mars 🔴 theconversation.com/how-to-eng

  3. 🧬 CRISPR-Cas Fact:
    CRISPR-Cas9 ist eine Genschere, die ursprünglich aus dem Immunsystem von Bakterien stammt – sie nutzen sie, um Viren gezielt zu erkennen und deren DNA zu zerschneiden. Heute wird diese Technik verwendet, um Gene präzise zu verändern, z. B. in der Medizin, Landwirtschaft und Forschung.

  5. [Перевод] CRISPR снова в строю! Генная терапия против холестерина прошла первое в мире клиническое испытание на людях

    В первом в мире исследовании ученые применили разовое редактирование генома с помощью CRISPR. Цель – отключить ген, способствующий накоплению плохого холестерина. Благодаря чему удалось снизить уровни холестерина и триглицеридов у пациентов, которые не реагировали на стандартное лечение.

  12. Молекулярные моторы: как химия создаёт нанороботов будущего

    Молекулярные моторы: как химия создаёт нанороботов будущего (И почему Нобелевская премия 2016 года изменила правила игры) Введение: От молекул к машинам В 1827 году ботаник Роберт Броун наблюдал, как частицы пыльцы беспорядочно двигаются в воде. Сегодня мы не просто объяснили это явление — мы научились проектировать молекулы, которые движутся целенаправленно . Речь о молекулярных моторах — синтетических структурах, способных преобразовывать энергию в механическую работу. Это не фантастика: такие «наномашины» уже доставляют лекарства в клетки, сортируют молекулы и даже генерируют механическую силу. Что такое молекулярный мотор?

  13. Emmanuelle Charpentier is a French microbiologist, geneticist and biochemist. In 2020, she and Jennifer Doudna were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for their groundbreaking work on the CRISPR-Cas9 technology. This was the first science Nobel Prize ever won by two women only. To honour her great contributions to microbiology, genetics and biochemistry, DSMZ researchers named the strain Pseudonocardia charpentierae (DSM 45834) after her.

    “Clues to keeping the brain’s regenerative cells youthful and energetic into old age have emerged by applying CRISPR gene editing to mice.

    Age impedes the ability of the brain’s stem cells to churn out new cells, but the study’s authors found that reducing the activity of a particular gene rejuvenated these stem cells, allowing them to proliferate and provide the brain with a supply of fresh neurons.

    That gene regulates stem cells’ consumption of glucose, a sugar that is key to cellular metabolism. The results in mice fit well with an emerging picture from studies of postmortem human brains. These efforts, too, have found that age affects metabolism in the brain.”

  29. @wirhabenessatt nein danke! Die seit Jahrzehnten gefahrene Kampagne gegen die vermeintlichen Gefahren der Gentechnik sind bar jedweder wissenschaftlichen Grundlage - erst recht seit dem Einsatz von Präzisionsmethoden wie #CRISPRCas9.

    Nicht die Methode, sondern das Ergebnis entscheidet.

    Die "klassische Züchtung" unter Verwendung von Radioaktivität/UV-Strahlung/chemische Induktion erzeugt im Gegensatz dazu unvorhersehbare Resultate und sollte eigentlich das Ziel solcher Kampagnen sein.
