NIMBB Researchers Uncover RNA-Binding Proteins as Potential Key Players in Tardigrade Immune Response
In a study by Joson et al., (2024) published in Biophysical Journal by Cell Press, NIMBB researchers from the Protein Structure and Immunology Laboratory discovered RNA-binding proteins that potentially serve as key players in the tardigrade immune system.
NIMBB Study Maps the Mitochondrial Genome of the Eggplant Fruit and Shoot Borer
In a study published in Insects by MDPI, NIMBB researchers, Mr. Joshua Despabiladeras and Dr. Ma. Anita Bautista sequenced and analyzed the complete mitogenome of L. orbonalis. The main objective was to create a reference assembly of this pest’s mitochondrial genome and use that information to determine where it fits in the evolutionary tree of crambid moths, a group that includes many agricultural pests.
NIMBB extends training to Tertiary-Level Faculty and Industry Professionals in Basic Molecular Biology Techniques Workshop
The National Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology at UP Diliman (NIMBB-UPD) conducted a three-day training on basic molecular biology techniques from July 20-22, 2024. Aimed at empowering researchers from various state universities and colleges (SUCs) and private institutions, the workshop targeted faculty members and industry researchers with minimal to no experience in molecular biology laboratory techniques.
NIMBB hosts 2024 batch of PSHS student-interns in Science Immersion Program
The National Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology-UP Diliman (NIMBB-UPD), through the Science Immersion Program (SIP), hosted 20 student-interns from the Philippine Science High School (PSHS) System on June 18-July 1, 2024.
