A new synthetic lifeform, often referred to as “mirror life,” has recently emerged as a potential risk to humankind. With its inherent capacity for rapid evolution and adaptation, this life form could ...
Scientists have created a bacteria with a genetic code more streamlined – and more meddled with – than any other life on Earth. This bacteria, a synthetic Escherichia coli called Syn57, has been ...
It has taken more than a decade, but scientists have finally reached a major step in the goal to create synthetic life in the lab. According to a new study led by a team from Macquarie University in ...
In our high school chemistry classes we all learn about chirality, the property of organic molecules in which two chemically identical molecules can have different structures that are mirror images of ...
It is one of the most fundamental questions in science: how can lifeless molecules come together to form a living cell? Bert Poolman, Professor of Biochemistry at the University of Groningen, has been ...
