Abstract We study the partitioning of motile bacteria in an aqueous two-phase mixture of dextran (DEX) and polyethylene glycol (PEG), which can phase separate into DEX-rich and PEG-rich phases. While nonmotile bacteria partition exclusively... Read More
Two early-career researchers at UNIST have been selected for the prestigious ‘Post-Doc Growth-Oriented Research Support (name tentative)‘ program, jointly funded by the Ministry of Education and the National Research Foundation... Read More
As Z-DNA binding protein 1 (ZBP1) has emerged as a promising target for simultaneously targeting infectious and inflammatory diseases, UNIST has been consecutively selected for national research and development projects to accelerate the de... Read More
Abstract The molecular mechanisms underlying metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) remain largely unclear; however, emerging evidence suggests that microRNAs (miRNAs) play a critical role in modulating transcripti... Read More
UNIST announced that it has partnered with the Institute of Molecular Biology (IMB) in Mainz, Germany, to advance the development of innovative cancer therapies. On February 10, the two institutions signed a collaborative agreement for canc... Read More

Abstract Proteins, inherently biocompatible and biodegradable, face a challenge in forming stable hydrogels without external chemical crosslinkers. Here, we construct a ring-shaped trimeric SpyTag-fused Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen Pr... Read More
UNIST biomedical engineering researchers are fostering global collaborative research with world-class research institutes. The Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT) has recently selected two faculty members at UNIST for the project aimed at de... Read More
Abstract Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a rapidly proliferating blood cancer, necessitating treatments that specifically target and swiftly eradicate it. In this study, we develop an AML-specific, apoptotic cell death-inducing protein nano... Read More
Abstract Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), caused by BCR::ABL1 fusion gene, is known to regulate disease progression by altering the expression of genes. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying these changes are largely unknown. In this... Read More
