🧬 Attention iGEM teams!

Are you starting a new project and thinking about biosafety systems? This is a great resource to explore different containment strategies:

📘 Auxotrophy to Xeno-DNA: an exploration of combinatorial mechanisms for a high-fidelity biosafety system for synthetic biology applications

➡️ https://doi.org/10.1186/s13036-018-0105-8

From engineered auxotrophy to xeno-DNA containment, it is full of ideas that could help shape your design and safety planning.

Largest RNA language model to date offers new way to predict behavior and boost drug discovery

RNA plays a vital role in how our genes are expressed and how diseases develop. Yet, because RNA molecules constantly change shape, understanding how they work has long been a major scientific challenge.
