Harnessing a tiny hairy beast.

With the goal of using the ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila for biotechnology applications-as a heterologous protein expression system-researchers have identified a copper-inducible and repressible promoter.

ESCs keep their options open.

Two powerful technologies enabled studies of chromatin that revealed features potentially responsible for the pluripotency of embryonic stem cells (ESCs).

Animals↗

Quantum dots go with the flow.

Adding quantum dots to a repertoire of conventional fluorochromes allows researchers to extend the power of fluorescence immunophenotyping.

Animals↗

The inside tag.

An uncharged CoA precursor that can enter the cell is used for covalent, site-specific labeling of proteins inside living cells.

Binding Sites↗

DNA makes GFP shine.

An oligomerization-dependent system comprising two fragments of green fluorescent protein (GFP) fused to engineered zinc fingers could be a means to detect virtually any double-stranded DNA sequence.

DNA Mutational Analysis↗

Labeling on the surface.

A strategy for labeling cell-surface proteins in living cells with small-molecule fluorophores allowed scientists to study receptor trafficking by single-cell FRET imaging in real time.
