Check out our new animation illustrating the fantastic research published in Nature yesterday:

We completed this project for a collective of scientists from various academic institutions and @rome_tx.
So excited to share our story revealing structures, functions and adaptations of the human LINE-1 retrotransposon, an ancient genetic parasite that has written 1/3 of the human genome and is implicated in cancer, aging, & autoimmunity. Now out in @Naturenature.com/articles/s41586-0…
How do DNA-binding proteins find their targets in the genome?
This animation for Elf Lab at @Uppsalauni shows two ways of how proteins search for target sites on the DNA sequence: by transcription factors and by CRISPR complexes.

Sometimes we combine 2D and 3D techniques. 3D creates detailed, scientifically accurate anatomical and molecular models, while schemes animated in 2D are more clear when explaining biochemical processes.

The animation for @Cybrexa presents the novel tumor-localizing peptide technology for drug delivery. The drug affects only the target tumor cells without damaging healthy tissues.

Biomedical visualization studio Visual Science has created the most detailed and scientifically accurate 3D model of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and it’s beautiful visual-science.com/projects/…
Epilepsy affects more than 1% of the human population. Our 3D animation contributes to the ongoing research of the types and causes of focal and generalized seizures as well as the cellular and molecular mechanisms behind the neuronal dysfunctions.

Dr. Emmanuelle Charpentier about our CRISPR animation:
"Attention to detail, beautiful imagery and in-depth information about the CRISPR-Cas mechanisms."

Visual Science’s CRISPR 3D animation, made with support from Skoltech, has received the 2018 Communicator Award of Excellence. We won awards in two categories: Online Video - Animation, and Online Video - Science.

How do CRISPR gene-editing systems work?
Watch our scientifically accurate 3D animation about CRISPR here: vimeo.com/252474293
The animation is based on molecular modeling and dynamics, which allowed us to produce accurate models of natural and engineered CRISPR complexes.
