| - | <p>In fusion the PUF protein to a restriction endonuclease, the fusion protein demonstrates the ability to cleave single stranded RNA molecules with customizable specificity up to eight base pairs. Considering this ability, we believe PUF can prove itself as a promising new tool in researching and developing new types of gene therapy as it can silence genes with seqeunces specific to a reseachers interest. </p> | + | <p>In fusion the PUF protein to a restriction endonuclease, the fusion protein demonstrates the ability to cleave single stranded RNA molecules with customizable specificity up to eight base pairs. Considering this ability, we believe PUF can prove itself as a promising new tool in researching and developing new types of gene therapy as it can silence genes with seqeunces specific to a reseachers interest. Outside the dry and wetlab, we have put forth great efforts in our human practices and the public education of science and biology.
