What is Micro RNA or miRNA? Micro RNAs belong to small non-coding RNA molecules involved in the regulation of gene expression. These short RNA sequences, typically of around 20-25 nucleotides, have emerged as important regulators of biological processes, ranging from cell development to the development of disease, with much importance […]
Sanger sequencing, also known as the dideoxy chain-termination method, is one of the cornerstone techniques for determining the exact nucleotide sequence of DNA. Introduced by Frederick Sanger and co-workers in 1977, it has been an important tool for genetic research, especially for determining entire genomes, such as in the Human […]
Researchers found that among all proteins, one protein-OSER1, greatly influences longevity.
Monoclonal antibodies revolutionized medicine by introducing a range of targeted therapies against malignant diseases, autoimmune disorders, infectious diseases, and many others. They are engineered from a single clone of cells to bind to antigens with very high precision. This article presents the underlying science behind monoclonal antibodies, including their applications, […]
Numerous treatments are being developed to target the genes causing the more than 100 epilepsies that have been linked to a single gene mutation.
Table of contents Principle Components Procedure Types Autoclave sterilization is a common sterilization method used in biological laboratories. It has a principle of physical/moist sterilization for killing fungi, bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms that occupy laboratory utensils including glassware. This is commonly used in health and research laboratories. It […]
For the best possible care, ultra-rare illnesses need both sophisticated genetic tests and diverse clinical competence.
Every year, hundreds of individuals are killed by cobra venom, and an estimated 100,000 more suffer severe injuries from necrosis, which is the loss of bodily tissue and cells and can result in amputation.
Genetic illnesses arise from alterations or mutations in DNA that impair regular biological processes.
