New Method Converts Methane in Natural Gas to Methanol at Room Temperature

When burned, natural gas the fuel used to heat homes, cook food and generate electricity produces carbon dioxide, a powerful greenhouse gas. According to the US Energy Information Administration, the US consumed approximately 31 trillion cubic feet of natural gas in 2019, contributing roughly 1.6 gigatons of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. A better way to use natural gas would be to convert it to methanol, a liquid fuel that burns more cleanly and can be used to produce gasoline and plastics. But converting the methane found in natural gas into methanol requires a lot of heat and pressure and generates a significant amount of carbon dioxide itself.

New gene-editing tool enables programming of sequential cuts over time

New gene-editing tool enables programming of sequential cuts over time Researchers from the University of Illinois Chicago have discovered a new gene-editing technique that allows for the programming of sequential cuts or edits over time. CRISPR is a gene-editing tool that allows scientists to change the DNA sequences in cells and sometimes add a desired sequence or genes. CRISPR uses an enzyme called Cas9 that acts like scissors to make a cut precisely at a desired location in the DNA. Once a cut is made, the ways in which cells repair the DNA break can be influenced to result in different changes or edits to the DNA sequence.
