Combinatorial Libraries: Life's Tinker Toys
Gail Dutton | May 18, 2003 | 9 min read
Courtesy of UC Davis Medical Center  COMBI-KING: Kit Lam brings his expertise in combinatorial chemistry, an innovative technique for creating millions of new chemical compounds in just days, to the UC Davis Cancer Center. It's the new mix and match. In the computer industry, programmers refer to modularity--the ability to shuffle different sections of computer code to create new software. In the life sciences, the modules are peptides or molecular fragments that can be combined to yield
Ribozymes: Hearkening Back to an RNA World
Jeffrey Perkel | Sep 15, 2002 | 9 min read
Illustration: Ned Shaw LIKE MOLECULAR TOY-MAKERS, ribozyme researchers create tools with evolutionary, diagnostic, and therapeutic applications. Nearly 20 years ago, Tom Cech and Sidney Altman discovered that some naturally occurring RNAs could perform enzymatic reactions, earning these researchers the 1989 Nobel Prize in chemistry. Scientists have now identified several examples of RNA enzymes, or ribozymes. Most make or break the phosphodiester bonds in nucleic acid backbones, but some
