Scientists Identify Agent of Transformation In Protein Blobs That Morph From Liquid to Solid

Rutgers University-New Brunswick — Fri, 18 Apr 2025 15:00:00 EST

An international research collaboration led by Rutgers University-New Brunswick scientists that examined microscopic blobs of protein found in human cells has discovered that some morph from an almost honey-like substance to a hard candy-like solid. These mysterious droplets, known as biomolecular condensates, solidify when they carry a high proportion of the protein alpha-synuclein, the scientists reported in Science Advances. Clumps of alpha-synuclein are commonly found in the brain cells of people with Parkinson's disease, a neurodegenerative brain disorder.

Scientists Develop Process Using Molecules in the Cell to Identify Environmental Signals

Rutgers University-New Brunswick — Thu, 10 Apr 2025 20:10:31 EST

Scientists have transformed RNA, a biological molecule present in all living cells, into a biosensor that can detect tiny chemicals relevant to human health. Research by Rutgers University-New Brunswick scientists centers on RNA, a nucleic acid that plays a crucial role in most cellular processes. Their work is expected to have applications in the surveillance of environmental chemicals and, ultimately, the diagnosis of critical diseases including neurological and cardiovascular diseases and cancer.

New PCR Chip Design: High-Pressure Liquid Seal Solves Bubble Problem

Chinese Academy of Sciences — Wed, 09 Apr 2025 09:25:40 EST

A new discovery has reshaped our understanding of PCR chip technology: water vapor, not air expansion, is the primary culprit behind bubble formation in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-based chips. This revelation has led to the development of a high-pressure liquid seal technique that effectively eliminates bubbles and prevents water loss during the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) process.
