A bioreactor that mimics a circulatory system can deliver nutrients and oxygen to artificial tissue, enabling the production of over 10 grams of chicken muscle for cultured meat applications.

When an external target molecule enters an artificial cell by membrane permeation, if a riboswitch-gene fusion specific to the target is present inside, a glowing protein is expressed from the ...

Growing cells in the laboratory is an art that humans have mastered decades ago. Recreating entire three-dimensional tissues is much more challenging. Researchers are developing a new hydrogel-based ...

While sugar is absorbed into your bloodstream and sent to your cells to be turned into energy, artificial sweeteners stay in your digestive tract until they pass in your stool or urine.

In fact, some natural or synthetic upregulating riboswitches (each fused to a reporter gene) have been used with cell-free systems to create artificial cell-based sensors for detecting membrane ...
