A team of scientists from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute’s Janelia Research Campus designed a fluorescent protein (CaMPARI) that causes permanent marking of active brain cells. They validated this new tool via x-ray crystallographic studies at the Berkeley Center for Structural Biology at the Advanced Light Source.
It Takes a Thief: Discovering How Bacteria Capture Genetic Info
Jennifer Doudna and James Nunez led a study at the Advanced Light Source that revealed the structural basis by which bacteria are able to capture genetic information from viruses and other foreign invaders for their own immunological system. This discovery holds promise for studying or correcting problems in human genomes.
Berkeley Lab scientists to help build world’s first total-body PET scanner
Scientists from the Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have set out to help build the world’s first total-body positron emission tomography (PET) scanner, a medical imaging device that could change the way cancers and other diseases are diagnosed and treated. The project is a consortium led by a UC Davis research team … Read more »
