Interferon Plays Pivotal, Inflammatory Role in Severe COVID-19 Cases
Genetic Engineering & Biotechnology News
One of the hallmarks of SARS-CoV-2 infection is the broad-spectrum of disease severity. COVID-19 usually results in a mild disease course that resolves on its own. However, some patients develop severe symptoms that require intensive care with mechanical ventilation. Understanding this distinction, and uncovering the cause of the difference between mild disease versus severe, has been the focus of many COVID-19 researchers.

New Gene Editing Tool Corrects Mutations in Mitochondrial DNA
The Scientist
In a creative feat of molecular engineering, scientists have for the first time developed a gene editing tool capable of making targeted, single base pair changes in the DNA of mitochondria. The new editor, derived from a bacterial toxin, could allow researchers to better study mitochondrial diseases ahead of possible future treatments, Science reports.

Transient Droplets Organize Biochemical Reactions Inside Cells
Chemical & Engineering News
Clifford P. Brangwynne smashed the single-celled embryo between a microscope slide and a thin glass cover slip. Then he peered into the microscope to get a look at the cell, taken from a worm commonly studied in the lab, Caenorhabditis elegans. What he expected to see were small, solid balls, composed of RNA and protein, dotting the cell. But instead, what he saw looked more like the world’s smallest lava lamp.

Matrigel matrix-3D plates are a pre-coated, convenient, off the shelf option that improve productivity and consistency in homogenous assays where 3D structures are grown and assayed directly in the plate. Using a pre-coated option eliminates the need to handle small volume ECM dispensation and helps reduce workflow steps

Spinning Chemicals for Faster Reactions
Phys.org
Cardiff University scientists have devised a new way of making reactions up to 70 times faster by using state-of-the-art equipment to spin chemicals around.
They found that efficient mixing within a chemical reaction could be achieved by spinning chemicals and catalysts around in a small tube, causing the reactions to happen much quicker.
The new findings could have a profound influence on the way that chemicals are made in a wide variety of industries, from drug development to agriculture and fragrances.

Researchers Present Concept for a New Technique to Study Superheavy Elements
Science Daily
Superheavy elements are intriguing nuclear and atomic quantum systems that challenge experimental probing as they do not occur in nature and, when synthesized, vanish within seconds. Pushing the forefront atomic physics research to these elements requires breakthrough developments towards fast atomic spectroscopy techniques with extreme sensitivity. A joint effort within the European Union's Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation program culminated in an optical spectroscopy proposal.

Differential Scanning Calorimetry to Quantify Protein-Ligand Binding
Lab Manager
A team of researchers from Russia recently reported an application of the capillary differential scanning calorimetry technique for the study of the binding of albumin, a plasma transport protein, with different drug ligands.
The processes of binding of various biologically active ligands to proteins can be quantitatively characterized by the values of thermodynamic binding constants, which determine the ratio between the concentrations of free and bound ligand.

The Biggest Flipping Challenge in Quantum Computing
Science Magazine
In October 2019, researchers at Google announced to great fanfare that their embryonic quantum computer had solved a problem that would overwhelm the best supercomputers. Some said the milestone, known as quantum supremacy, marked the dawn of the age of quantum computing. However, Greg Kuperberg, a mathematician at the University of California, Davis, who specializes in quantum computing, wasn’t so impressed.
