Orphan bHLH enhances plant biomass gain. The orphan bHLH gene has an exclusive nuclear subcellular localization with a transcriptional activator activity.
Spherical powders applied to nuclear targetry for isotope production will allow for enhanced heat transfer properties, tailored thermal conductivity and minimize time required for target fabrication and post processing.
ORNL has developed bacterial strains that can utilize a common plastic co-monomer as a feedstock. This will help enable modern, petroleum-derived plastics to be converted into value-added chemicals.
Direct-acting antivirals are needed to combat coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2).
Biocompatible nanoparticles have been developed that can trap and retain therapeutic radionuclides and their byproducts at the cancer site. This is important to maximize the therapeutic effect of this treatment and minimize associated side effects.
Due to a genes unique nucleotide sequences acquired through horizontal gene transfer, the gene has a transcriptional repressor activity and innate enzymatic role.
We have developed bacterial strains that can convert sustainable feedstocks and waste feedstocks into chemical precursors for next generation plastics.
ORNL has identified a panel of novel nylon hydrolases with varied substrate and product selectivity.
Genetic modification of microbes that are thermophiles—ones that grow at elevated temperatures—is extremely challenging. Tools developed for E. coli, a typical host for protein production, typically do not function at elevated temperatures.
There is a critical need for new antiviral drugs for treating infections of severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2).
