A team of engineers has designed bacteria capable of producing an extraordinary amino acid never seen in nature.
Dr. Kunjapur, one of the researchers involved in this project, explained, "pN-Phe has a nice history in the literature. It can be attached to a protein from a mouse, reintroduced into mice, and the immune system will no longer tolerate the original version of that protein." Imagine the potential for treating and preventing diseases caused by these troublesome proteins that seem to evade our immune system's grasp.
Their ultimate goal is to refine this platform for applications related to vaccines and immunotherapies to enhance our ability to combat various diseases. Their work has already garnered recognition, as Dr. Kunjapur received the prestigious 2021 AIChE Langer Prize and the 2022 National Institutes of Health Director's New Innovator Award.

Used TVR CERBERA SPEED 12 for saleThis lot will be auctioned via Silverstone Auctions, Supercar Fest Sale of Iconic and Classic Cars 2023 on Saturday the 20th of May, Sywell Aerodrome, Sywell, Northampton, NN6 0BN. The only Cerbera Speed 12 built by TVR specifically for the road, the defining example and the only remaining factory-built complete car Fully prepared by TVR engineers, this road-going GT car is uniquely fitted with the correct, race-bred 7.7-litre 840bhp V12 engine and the final evolution of the race car carbon-fibre/Kevlar bodywork with a flat-floor and powerful aero Originally offered for sale directly by TVR boss Peter Wheeler Widely featured in the motoring press (see images of EVO magazine article by scrolling through above) and immortalised in the Sony PlayStation game Gran Turismo One of the rarest and most revered supercars of the last 25 years, a truly special machine In today’s crazy world of ‘hyper-cars’, with manufacturers continuing to indulge their seemingly irresistible need to build the most rapid cars the world has ever seen, the TVR Cerbera Speed 12 would fit right in, however 20 years ago, the idea of a road car weighing 1,100kg with nearly 900bhp wasn’t so much unprecedented as unhinged. ‘Project 7/12’ was originally conceived in the 1990s with the design brief to develop a supercar to rival the McLaren F1 GTR, whilst also producing a true GT road-racer. It debuted at the 1996 Birmingham motor show and, predictably, it caused a sensation. The possibility that it might actually be quicker than the McLaren F1 wasn’t vigorously denied by TVR boss Peter Wheeler though, unlike the F1, the Speed 12 had a development brief that was heavily biased towards a career as a GT1 class endurance racer with the aim of taking it to Le Mans. The 7/12 project tag denoted the proportions of its monster engine, essentially two Cerbera Speed 6 straight-sixes spliced together, utilising a steel block, further developed by TVR’s John Ravenscroft creating a 7.7-litre V12. The story goes that
