When COVID-19 emerged in 2019, by contrast, mRNA vaccines developed by Pfizer and Moderna took just 326 days from the initial sequencing of the virus to gaining approval for emergency use. These drugs would be ideal tools to bridge the wait for a vaccine against a quickly-spreading virus.

The long-acting regimen of cabotegravir and rilpivirine is an investigational regimen for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in adults to replace the current antiretroviral regimen in patients who are virologically stable and suppressed (HIV-1 RNA less than 50 copies/mL). Shionogi joined in October 2012.

Rolf Turk , Senior Manager, Genomics Medicine at Integrated DNA Technologies, examines how CRISPR is being used to enhance cancer therapies. CRISPR diagnostics have successfully detected various pathogens, including RNA viruses (eg. parvovirus B19, Flaviviridae, Ebola, and Coronaviridae), DNA viruses (e.g.,

And unlike traditional DNA sequencers, which parse genetic material by breaking it up into fragments and interpreting it chunk-by-chunk, a nanopore device unspools a long strand of DNA and reads it all at once. A scientist can isolate DNA and load up a flow cell in fifteen minutes. Nanopore devices work incredibly fast.

“The recombinant DNA breakthrough has provided us with a new and powerful approach to the questions that have intrigued and plagued man for centuries. The central dogma is often depicted as DNA→RNA→protein, but it’s much more: A biophysical marvel inside the smallest of vessels. Biology is a Burrito.

A few weeks ago, I noticed a surprising metric when posting my weekly DNA Science blog – at year’s end, I’d hit #500! The Birth of DNA Science When St. Martin’s Press was about to publish my book about gene therapy in 2012, my agent urged me to start blogging. We renamed it DNA Science.

DNA sequences are designed on a computer, and it takes a dozen or more clicks to change a single nucleotide. DNA sequences are also checked by hand, so it’s easy to make a mistake. The tool outputs a DNA sequence that encodes all the required enzymes. A phage is a virus that infects bacteria. Paper by Sha G.
