Zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs) have great potential for translational research and clinical use. Scientists succeeded in the efficient construction of functional ZFNs and the improvement of their genome ...

RNA-binding proteins use a dual binding mechanism involving zinc finger (ZnF) domains and intrinsically disordered regions (IDR), reports a new study from Institute of Science Tokyo, Japan. Using ...

"I lost concentration and began to think of our scholarly daughter working at Yale on a project called Zinc Fingers scanning a protein with pseudopods each with a trace of zinc that latch on to our ...

Researchers have, for the first time, modified a single, disease-causing mutation without altering any other parts of the genome in human stem cells. Scientists in Rudolph Jaenisch’s lab at the ...
