Eureka Moments: making proteins, making a difference
“In the second of the Biochemical Society’s video interviews with our Honorary Members, Michael Neuberger and Brian Hartley talk to Sir Greg Winter about his role as a pioneer of therapeutic antibodies.” More…
No DNA needed, RNA goes solo
“Philipp Holliger and his co-workers at LMB have engineered an RNA enzyme to synthesize another active RNA enzyme from an RNA template. This models one theory for how life originated on Earth: with RNA molecules that both encoded genetic information and catalysed reactions to express that information.” More…
Biologists create one of life’s first enzymes
“tC19Z, synthesised in Phil Holliger’s lab at LMB, could be a version of one of the first enzymes that ever existed on our planet – and a clue to how life itself got started.” More…
