BIODYNAMICS approach will aim to demonstrate that multipurpose microbial cell factories based on a standardized, modular plug-andplay synthetic biology pipeline are a real possibility for quicker, cheaper and more effective bioproduction. To this end, we will develop novel hybrid (data-driven and mechanistic) modelling and characterization methods and tools for advanced metabolic engineering biology. In particular, it will consider the design, implementation and analysis of optimal synthetic ...

BBSRC sLoLa grantThe spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a slow-moving pandemic that has been identified by the WHO as one of the top 10 threats facing humanity. Plasmids and other MGEs play a key role in the dissemination of AMR, but we have only a rudimentary understanding of the factors that determine if and how MGEs spread through microbial communities. It is generally assumed that bacterial immune systems are a major determinant, but existing studies are limited to only a few stand-alone ...

The project brings comprehensive study of diversity in Clostridium beijerinckii, solvent-producing species with potential use in industrial biotechnology.

Rationale: Individuals with a cancer predisposition due to a mutation in the paradigm tumor suppressor gene RB1, have a high risk to develop the childhood cancer retinoblastoma (Rb). Biopsies are not possible in Rb, before treatment selection. Heritable Rb patients have also a high risk to develop other types of second primary, either childhood or adult, malignancies (SPMs), notably sarcomas and melanomas. Remarkably, SPMs are now the leading cause of death in heritable-Rb-survivors. Unfortunately, ...

Here we share resources and best practices to develop a disease map for COVID-19. The project is progressing as a broad community-driven effort. We aim to establish a knowledge repository on virus-host interaction mechanisms specific to the SARS-CoV-2. The COVID-19 Disease Map is an assembly of molecular interaction diagrams established based on literature evidence.

Investigation regarding the impact of periportal steatosis on selected parameters of drug metabolism.

Cells of P. cordatum adapted to growth at 20 °C and constant light:dark conditions were shifted to growth at 26 °C and 30 °C, respectively, with similar illumination conditions. During exponential and stationary growth, cells were collected for transcriptomic, proteomic and metabolomic analyses.

By intelligent use of existing registries and health data, DeCipher aims to develop a data-driven framework to provide a personalized time-varying risk assessment for cancer initiation and identify subgroups of individuals and factors leading to similar disease progression. By unveiling structure hidden in the data, we will develop novel theoretically grounded machine learning methods for the analysis of large-scale registry and health data.DeCipher consists of an excellent multidisciplinary ...

Standard ASO design is based on the sequence complementarity of the oligo to its target. However, the degree of target knockdown that ASOs can achieve varies strongly between different ASOs having full complementarity to the target. To determine which factors affect the ASOs’ activity, Secarna has used a novel approach: the Company has designed and screened 51 multi-specific ASOs with a common target (IDO1, a gene involved in tryptophan metabolism), and varying numbers of diverse other targets ...
