Development of a Positive-readout Mouse Model of siRNA Pharmacodynamics
Development of RNAi-based therapeutics has the potential to revolutionize treatment options for a range of human diseases. However, as with gene therapy, a major barrier to progress is the lack of methods to achieve and measure efficient delivery for ...

A modified consumer inkjet for spatiotemporal control of gene expression.
This paper presents a low-cost inkjet dosing system capable of continuous, two-dimensional spatiotemporal regulation of gene expression via delivery of diffusible regulators to a custom-mounted gel culture of E. coli. A consumer-grade, inkjet printer was

Regulation of bistability in the std fimbrial operon of Salmonella enterica by DNA adenine methylation and transcription factors HdfR, StdE and StdF [PDF]
Bistable expression of the Salmonella enterica std operon is controlled by an AND logic gate involving three transcriptional activators: the LysR-type factor HdfR and the StdE and StdF regulators encoded by the std operon itself.

Use of a Role-Playing Activity To Increase Student Understanding of Bacterial Gene Regulation
Undergraduate students often struggle to understand the basics of bacterial gene regulation, a key concept in microbiology. They find it hard to visualize the architecture of a bacterial operon or how the gene, RNA, and protein components interact with ...
