    Clemens Richert is investigating the evolutionary role of RNA

    Prof. Clemens Richert and his team of researchers from the University of Stuttgart are investigating the role of ribonucleic acid (RNA) in the development of life on earth. An important issue that has not yet been solved is how double-strand RNA can be created without the involvement of enzymes. Richert’s experiments have led to a breakthrough discovery as well as some mechanistic explanations.

    New test for safer biomedical research results

    In biomedical research with living cells in the culture dish, contamination with bacteria, viruses or other fast-growing cells is always a problem. Scientists of the German Cancer Research Centre (Deutsches Krebsforschungszentrum, DKFZ) have now developed a test system for the fast and cost-effective detection of such contaminations. The new method will contribute to making biomedical research results safer and reproducible.

    DNA sequencing techniques have been developed along the lines of faster, further, cheaper. State-of-the-art methods make it possible to handle large projects in a relatively short period of time. However, the error rate is still very high. Dr. Maria Fyta and her team at the Institute for Computational Physics at the University of Stuttgart have carried out quantum-transport calculations which suggested that specific chemical modifications in the…

    Ionera – measuring tiny ion currents

    The identification and characterisation of individual DNA and protein molecules is gaining in importance. A method developed by Dr. Gerhard Baaken and Prof. Dr. Jan C. Behrends at the University of Freiburg has the potential to be used by scientists to analyse a large number of single molecules automatically using nanopores. The MECA (microelectrode cavity array) technology can be adapted to a broad range of different applications.

    Daniel Gebhard – a new chapter in the mitochondrial theory of aging

    It has been known for quite some time that skin aging and skin cancer are connected with UV radiation. It is believed that mutations in the mitochondrial DNA are major contributors to aging and cancer, which is why in-depth knowledge about the repair mechanisms of skin cells is essential. Daniel Gebhard, doctoral student at Albstadt-Sigmaringen University, is investigating the repair capacity of mtDNA in different human skin cell types. He is…

    Computomics: unlocking the secrets of plant genome sequences

    Thanks to the latest generation of sequencing technology, the deciphering of the complete genome of organisms is becoming faster and cheaper. The challenge is to compile the book of life from millions of DNA fragments and unlock the secrets of the human and other organisms. The young bioinformatics company Computomics in Tübingen is doing just this for crops. In contrast to the human genome, the genome of the majority of plants is still a book…

    More effective extraction of small RNAs

    Small RNAs are gaining in importance in research as well as in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries. However the potential of these molecules can only be exploited fully if very pure RNAs can be extracted from the cells in sufficiently high quantities. Currently used methods are expensive and only designed for large cell quantities. In addition the operation of the extraction systems is very complicated. A new biochip developed by Dr.…

    Epigenetic changes don’t last

    First comprehensive inventory of epigenetic changes over several generations shows that these often do not last and therefore probably have limited effects on long-term evolution. The team around Detlef Weigel, director of the Department for Molecular Biology, focused on one of the most important epigenetic marks, methylation of DNA.

    Bioplastics – materials that have the potential to be used in medical technology

    At the recent International Symposium on Biopolymers ISBP in Stuttgart scientists discussed the use of biobased plastics for applications in the field of medical technology. The majority of strategies presented at the symposium will only be ready for market in a few years time. However they give an idea as to why bioplastics are likely to be applied to a greater extent in the field of medical technology.

    Ring-like protein complex helps ensure accurate protein production

    In fairy tales, magic rings endow their owners with special abilities: the ring makes the wearer invisible, fulfils his wishes, or otherwise helps the hero on the path to his destiny. Similarly, a ring-like structure found in a protein complex called ‘Elongator’ has led researchers at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) in Heidelberg, Germany, and the Institut de Génétique et Biologie Moléculaire et Cellulaire (IGBMC) in Strasbourg,…

    To fight the Cancer before the Tumour grows

    Researchers in Heidelberg have discovered a new strategy for an immunization against certain forms of cancer. They have determined that immune cells react strongly to the modified proteins in tumor cells in which a DNA repair defect has occurred. It is estimated that this repair defect is present in some 15 percent of all tumours.

    Diagnostics with molecular scissors – is this also possible for on-site COVID-19 tests?

    The CRISPR-Cas gene-editing technology is one of the most important developments in molecular biology in recent years. It utilises molecular scissors with which nucleic acids can be cut and edited almost arbitrarily. Researchers in Freiburg, Germany have now successfully used the technology for diagnostic purposes. They are currently working intensively on expanding the system to enable it to detect genome sequences of the novel SARS-CoV-2 virus.

    Sex hormone induces elongation of stem cell telomeres

    The telomere ends of chromosomes become shorter with any cell division round. This is why the lifespan of most cells is limited. One of several exceptions to this rule is the haematopoietic stem cells of the bone marrow. The enzyme telomerase enables them compensate telomere attrition. However defective telomerase function can cause bone marrow failure disorders such as aplastic anaemia amongst others. Prof. Dr. Uwe Martens from the SLK Hospital…

    Molecular switches for gene expression in the embryo

    Prof. Dr. Andreas Hecht and his team at the University of Freiburg are investigating one of seven known fundamental signalling systems that are involved in almost all embryonic development processes and that determine the fate of cells.

    Successes and setbacks of clinical gene therapy

    The use of retroviral haematopoietic stem cell gene therapy to treat hereditary immunodeficiencies has achieved great success in resolving the actual symptoms of the disease, but many of the patients that underwent therapy developed leukaemia later. Effective gene therapies involving gene shuttles that do not cause cancer are therefore required. The good news is that such therapies already exist.
