1. Prior to this measurement they used an enzyme to remove viruses that were bound to the outside of the cells. 2. In bio-chemistry drug design, using enzymes to produce, for example, methanol or efanol -- huge advances again going on here. 3. Enzymes are used in making detergents and other consumer products. 4. Evidence that the enzyme can be used as a potential therapy without triggering unregulated growth still leaves some safety questions unanswered. 5. He also used the enzymes to break up the DNA found in cancer cells in an effort to learn what made them different from normal cells. 6. He writes about cloning and using enzymes to chop genes and altering their sequences to find out how they work. 7. In biomass production, enzymes are used to break down organic waste into sugars that can be fermented into ethanol. 8. It has been extremely difficult to use natural enzymes to replicate DNA that contains artificial bases, even in the test tube. 9. Someone will use this enzyme to identify that gene, while someone else uses a different chemical, leading to potential conflicts over primacy of discovery. 10. The enzyme has been used to regulate the blood of people whose circulatory systems overproduce oxalic acid, a condition that could result in a potentially fatal kidney disease. |
