...-cancer properties of the drug, but were unable to devise efficient synthetic strategies that favored that configuration. Sherman's team accomplished this by isolating the entire set of biosynthetic genes and key enzymes and developing a new, efficient method to manufacture the broad class of cryptophyci...McBride shows DNA detective work with paper-eating bacteria that 'glide'
.... The information McBride reports could help DOE devise mixtures of microorganisms or enzymes that will more efficiently convert cellulose into glucose, and finally into ethanol. McBride's interest in C. hutchinsonii goes beyond its possible value in bioenergy. What really intrigues him is that it's a......ates in the university’s BME Design Team course to devise a way to keep the microcapsules in one place where their cells could thrive and deliver effective therapy. During the past school year, the engineering students researched the topic, tested biomaterials and constructed the prototype, designed to f...
