The goal with this series was to remove unnecessary complexity and focus purely on the practice learners actually ...

Conjugation is the process by which one bacterium transfers genetic material to another through direct contact. During conjugation, one bacterium serves as the donor of the genetic material, and the ...

Molecular optical imaging has shown promise in visualizing molecular biomarkers with subcellular resolution both noninvasively and in real-time. Here, we use gold nanoparticles as optical probes to ...

To adapt to changing environmental pressures, bacteria have developed various methods that allow them to uptake exogenous DNA and incorporate it into their own genomes. One of these processes is ...

An antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) is a newly developed, highly-targeted type of cancer therapeutic. ADCs are created by grafting monoclonal antibodies to a cytotoxic payload. This new type of cancer ...
