Molecular monitoring of RNA regulation

New biological tool for tracking cellular processes

17-Nov-2022

The better we understand cellular processes such as RNA regulation, the better molecular therapies can be developed. Until now, it has been especially difficult to track the regulation of non-coding RNA, which is RNA that is not further converted into proteins. A research team from the Technical ...

Synthetic peptides may suppress formation of harmful deposits

Valuable candidates for the development of drugs for treating Alzheimer's disease and type 2 diabetes

10-Nov-2022

In Alzheimer's disease, the degeneration of brain cells is linked to formation of toxic protein aggregates and deposits known as amyloid plaques. Similar processes play an important role also in type 2 diabetes. A research team under the lead of the Technical University of Munich has now ...

First electric nanomotor made from DNA material

Synthetic rotary motors at the nanoscale perform mechanical work

27-Jul-2022

A research team led by the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has succeeded for the first time in producing a molecular electric motor using the DNA origami method. The tiny machine made of genetic material self-assembles and converts electrical energy into kinetic energy. The new nanomotors ...

Mass spectrometry-based draft of the mouse proteome

A milestone for biomedical research

30-Jun-2022

Proteins control and organize almost every aspect of life. The totality of all proteins in a living organism, a tissue or a cell is called the proteome. Using mass spectrometry, researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) characterize the proteome, or protein complement of the genome, ...

Mini-fuel cell generates electricity using the body's sugar

Glucose energy source for medicinal implants and sensors

24-May-2022

Glucose is the most important energy source in the human body. Scientists at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) now want to use the body's sugar as an energy source for medicinal implants. They have developed a glucose fuel cell which ...

When quantum particles fly like bees

Quantum simulator provides insights into the dynamics of complex quantum systems

16-May-2022

A quantum system consisting of only 51 charged atoms can assume more than two quadrillion different states. Calculating the system's behavior is a piece of cake for a quantum simulator. Yet even with today's supercomputers it is almost impossible to verify the result. A research team from the ...

Bright, stable, and easy to recycle lighting

Low-cost blue and white light emitting electrochemical cells developed

11-May-2022

A low-cost and easy-to-manufacture lighting technology can be made with light-emitting electrochemical cells. Such cells are thin-film electronic and ionic devices that generate light after a low voltage is applied. Researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and the University of ...

Light may increase performance of fuel cells and lithium-ion batteries

Light makes ions mobile

24-Mar-2022

Lithium-ion batteries, fuel cells and many other devices depend on the high mobility of ions in order to work properly. But there a large number of obstacles to such mobility. A research team led by Jennifer L. M. Rupp of the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and Harry L. Tuller of the ...

Targeted enzymes destroy virus RNA

RNA interference as a new approach for the treatment of COVID-19

04-Mar-2022

A research team led by the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has successfully used specific enzymes to destroy the genetic information of SARS-CoV-2 directly after the virus penetrates the cell. The findings could serve as the basis for a therapy to treat COVID-19. Our genome contains building ...

“New” organism being prepared for biotechnology applications

Basis for next-gen bioprocesses

25-Feb-2022

Succinic acid is an important precursor for pharmaceutical and cosmetic products and also serves as a component in biodegradable plastics. It is currently derived mainly from petroleum-based processes. Researchers at the Straubing campus of the Technical University of Munich (TUM) are using the ...
