Plasmids naturally exist in bacterial cells, and they also occur in some eukaryotes. Often, the genes carried in plasmids provide bacteria with genetic advantages, such as antibiotic resistance.

Results saw all 24 healthy volunteers who made it to the 72-week mark still had effective levels of dMAB in their systems.

Plasmids are small, circular DNA molecules that are used for genetic engineering, CRISPR applications, gene therapy, pharmaceutical development, and recombinant DNA technologies. Plasmids come in ...

"It's why bacteria evolve so rapidly," Fu said. "Sometimes, plasmids can integrate into genomic DNA, but this happens quite randomly. They might cause difficulty for individual bacterial survival ...

The ability to control gene expression across a wide range is crucial for many fields, including bioengineering, disease detection, and environmental monitoring. Research led by Lingchong You, Ph.D., ...

Safe and effective gene therapy strategies depend on robust and reliable adeno-associated virus (AAV) mediated therapeutic gene delivery. However, scaling up AAV manufacturing to obtain sufficient ...

Removal of compaction agents can also employ non-alcoholic solutions of high ionic strength, and may be unnecessary for plasmids, which are to be formulated with spermine or spermidine for ...
