This important study of artificial selection in microbial communities shows that the possibility of selecting a desired fraction of slow and fast-growing types is impacted by their initial fractions.

Antibody repertoire sequencing (Rep-seq) has been widely used to reveal repertoire dynamics and to interrogate antibodies of interest at single nucleotide-level resolution. However, polymerase chain ...

Polycomb group (PcG) proteins are employed by a wide variety of eukaryotes for the maintenance of gene repression. Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2), a multimeric complex of PcG proteins, catalyzes ...

"Welcome to your week 4 assignment (part 1 of 2)! You have previously trained a 2-layer Neural Network (with a single hidden layer). This week, you will build a deep neural network, with as many ...

Much of what we know about microbes assumes a single nutrient limits growth, but does this reflect the ecological reality of microbes in nature? Understanding which nutrients limit growth, and by how ...

Genome-editing systems are essential for understanding gene function by means of reverse genetics. Zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs) and transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs) have been ...
