Engineering the Microbiome: CRISPR Leads the Way
Mariella Bodemeier Loayza Careaga, PhD | Mar 15, 2024 | 10+ min read
Scientists have genetically modified isolated microbes for decades. Now, using CRISPR, they intend to target entire microbiomes.
Epithelial cells and fungal spores are marked with fluorescent dyes. Cells have an irregular shape and are shown in green and blue colors. Spores are spherical in shape and are labeled green if they are surrounded by p11 protein. A protein in mature phagosomes is labeled violet.

Biofilms are home to millions of microbes, but disrupting their interactions could produce more effective antibiotics.
Illustration of newly discovered mechanism allowing kinesin to “walk” down a microtubule. A green kinesin molecule with an attached yellow fluorophore is shown passing through a blue laser as it rotates step by step along a red and purple microtubule, fueled by blue ATP molecules that are hydrolyzed into orange ADP and phosphate groups.

DNA Software Takes The Drudgery Out Of Molecular Biology
Ricki Lewis | Sep 15, 1991 | 8 min read
Author: RICKI LEWIS, p.23 It is expected to take some 15 years to determine the sequence of the 3 billion base pairs that make up the human genome--roughly 550,000 base pairs per day. An analytical task of this magnitude would have been unthinkable just a few years ago, but today's rapidly advancing computer technology has made the international effort to sequence the human genome possible.
