Single-molecule experiments reveal that one SauUSI restriction enzyme dimer from Staphylococcus aureus acts as an ATP-driven ...

Enzymes that cut DNA at specific sites are called endonucleases; these enzymes play many roles in genomic replication, fidelity, and defense. The initial discovery of restriction endonucleases in the ...

Sau3AI is a type II restriction enzyme widely used for genetic manipulation, such as genome library construction. Sau3AI consists of two domains, the N-terminal domain (Sau3AI-N) and the C-terminal ...

Anthropic's Claude discovered a novel enzyme system with properties reminiscent of CRISPR. Here is what it found and what remains unknown.

Researchers at the Nano Life Science Institute at Kanazawa University in Japan say they have directly visualized how enzymes find and break DNA molecules in real time. Using high-speed atomic force ...

A new CRISPR-based gene-editing tool has been developed which could lead to better treatments for patients with genetic disorders. The tool is an enzyme, AsCas12f, which has been modified to offer the ...
