Machine learning expands single-molecule analysis accuracy and accessibility

The observation of single biomolecules in real-time is crucial for our understanding of the cellular biology that is assembled from these molecules, be they DNA, RNA or protein. The recent development of an array of tools and techniques for single-molecule analysis allows studies at an extremely small scale (nanometers, or 10-9 meters) over short periods…

U-M and multinational coalition of scientists reveal ribosome-RNA polymerase structural link to protein synthesis initiation in bacteria

By Paul Avedisian 29 November 2024 An international consortium of researchers from the University of Michigan, the Université de Strasbourg, and the Technische Universität Berlin uncover important players in the mechanistics and the machinery involved in the bacterial ribosome-mRNA translation initiation process through an intercollegiate collaborative new study.  Adrien Chauvier, Ph.D., is a Senior Scientist…

CRISPR to KLIPP cancer

While most efforts involving CRISPR are focused on genome editing, the CRISPR machinery could also be used as a molecular weapon to slice up chromosomes of cancer cells. Research has shown that chromosomes may undergo a “catastrophic” event early in the process of carcinogenesis causing multiple breakages. While many cells die in such events, some…
