As the massive international 1000 Genome project winds to a close in its efforts to define personal genomes, Yale researchers illustrate the importance of maternal and paternal contributions to an individual’s genetic makeup. The lab of Mark Gerstein, the...
A Yale research team has created a mutant protein-making factory in bacteria that churns out proteins containing beta-amino acids, molecules not normally found in nature but capable of creating longer-lasting and life-saving medicines.
The research...
