    “Metabolism and cell division are both essential for life. However, little is known about the crucial interplay between these processes. Researchers will unravel the mechanism responsible for a clock-like behavior of eukaryotic metabolism during cell division. The insights will be instrumental for advances in biomedicine and biotechnology.” Vici is one ...

  • Artificial cell division a step closer to reality

    06 / 11 / 2019

    The group of Christophe Danelon at TU Delft has now succeeded in reproducing the Min-system in artificially created vesicles, so-called ‘liposomes’. All three proteins were directly expressed from their genes within such liposomes, a process known as ‘cell-free protein synthesis’. “But it is not enough to just insert the ...
