Athena: Modular CAM/CAD Software for Synthetic Biology [PDF]
arXiv, 2009 Synthetic biology is the engineering of cellular networks. It combines principles of engineering and the knowledge of biological networks to program the behavior of cells. Computational modeling techniques in conjunction with molecular biology techniques have been successful in constructing biological devices such as switches, oscillators, and gates ...

Monte Carlo Inverse Folding [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 The RNA Inverse Folding problem comes from computational biology. The goal is to find a molecule that has a given folding. It is important for scientific fields such as bioengineering, pharmaceutical research, biochemistry, synthetic biology and RNA nanostructures. Nested Monte Carlo Search has given excellent results for this problem.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Analysis of ESR1 mutations in plasma cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) is highly important for the selection of treatment in patients with breast cancer. Using multiplex‐ddPCR and identical blood draws, we investigated whether circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and cfDNA provide similar or complementary information for ESR1 mutations.

High-Throughput Biologically Optimized Search Engineering Approach to Synthetic Biology [PDF]
arXiv, 2011 Synthetic Biology is the new engineering-based approach to biology that includes applications of designing complex biological devices. At present, it is not yet clear what will emerge as the defining principles of Synthetic Biology. One proposed approach is to build Synthetic Biology around the classical engineering principles of standardization ...

The whack-a-mole governance challenge for AI-enabled synthetic biology: literature review and emerging frameworks [PDF]
Front. Bioeng. Biotechnol. 12:1359768.AI-enabled synthetic biology has tremendous potential but also significantly increases biorisks and brings about a new set of dual use concerns. The picture is complicated given the vast innovations envisioned to emerge by combining emerging technologies, as AI-enabled synthetic biology potentially scales up bioengineering into industrial ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Patient‐derived xenografts (PDXs) can be improved by implantation of a humanized niche. We tested different biomaterials and approaches, and demonstrate that the combination of an injectable biomaterial for scaffold creation plus an intravenous route for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) xenotransplantation provide the most convenient and robust approach to

Targeted metabolomics reveals novel diagnostic biomarkers for colorectal cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This study employed targeted metabolomic profiling to identify 302 distinct metabolites present in platelet‐rich plasma (PRP), revealing aberrant metabolic profiles amongst individuals diagnosed with colorectal cancer (CRC). Compared to carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and cancer antigen 19‐9 (CA199), our metabolite panel showed improved sensitivity ...

Short single-stranded DNA degradation products augment the activation of Toll-like receptor 9
Nature Communications, 2017 DNA degradation products are frequently found in the endosome, but how they regulate the activation of Toll-like receptors is not known. Here the authors show that single-stranded DNA as short as two nucleotides can enhance the ability of longer DNA ...
