This aptamer-based solution offers both better performance and lower cost alternative to similar antibody-based products.

TAGCyx Biotechnologies uses its proprietary Xenoligo technology platform to generate novel DNA aptamers containing an artificial nucleotide that have high affinity and selectivity for target proteins.

A research team led by the University of California, Irvine has engineered an efficient new enzyme that can produce a synthetic genetic material called threose nucleic acid. The ability to synthesize ...

To address this, Professor Jongmin Kim’s team developed the “START platform" technology based on aptamers. Aptamers are short strands of nucleic acids (DNA or RNA) that bind specifically and ...

In a paper published recently in Nature Catalysis, a research team led by the University of California, Irvine describe how they engineered an efficient new enzyme that can produce a synthetic genetic ...

By designing and programming DNA structures with specific functional components, such as aptamers or antibodies, scientists can create nanoscale devices that can interact with biological systems in ...

The EU has awarded the researchers €188,000 to support the project through September 2026, by which time they hope to have a validated prototype ready.

The clumps are thought to impair the function of neurons in the brain and spinal cord. Aptamers are already being used in cancer and Alzheimer’s diagnostics, and Gregory et al have adapted the ...

A research team led by the University of California, Irvine has engineered an efficient new enzyme that can produce a ...

In surface engineering of biomaterials, especially related to catheter, cannula and implantable sensor surfaces. Tibor Hianik: The biosensors for bacterial detection based on DNA aptamers that were ...

In synthetic biology, researchers can design and engineer RNA molecules with specific functions by manipulating the sequence of uracil and other nucleobases. This enables the creation of synthetic ...
