Max Planck researchers have for the first time developed a genome the size of a minimal cell that can copy itself.
In future, pursuant to the amended Genetic Engineering Safety Ordinance (GenTSV), project leaders and biosafety officers (BBS) must update their professional expertise every five years by attending a refresher course.
Scientists at the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry (MPIB) decipher the activation chain of protein degradation
Researchers at the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry have elucidated the entire structure of the talin protein with the help of cryo-electron microscopy. The new findings explain the protein’s self-inhibitory mechanism.
The company will display the exhibition in its entrance area from January 19 to February 28, 2026.
The Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry regularly holds public events, including an Open Day and lectures in the “Wissenschaft für Jedermann” series. Exhibitions in the institute foyer every two months connect science and art.
The page describes how cooling the cyanobacterial circadian clock stops its molecular cogwheels, making it possible to visualize details of their appearance and assembly.
Together with the neighboring Max Planck Institute of Biological Intelligence, the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry (MPIB) forms the biggest employer in the Würmtal. The people at the MPIB work in different areas: sciences as well as administration and service
Together with the neighboring Max Planck Institute for Biological Intelligence, the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry (MPIB) is the largest employer in the Würmtal region. MPIB employees work in a wide range of fields: in research, as well as in administration and support services.
Under the amended Genetic Engineering Safety Ordinance (GenTSV), project leaders and Biological Safety Officers (BBS) must renew their expertise every five years through a refresher course. The company recommends checking with the responsible state authority because enforcement varies by state.
About 150 graduate students from around the world work at the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry in Martinsried. Founded in 2001, its Graduate Committee represents IMPRS-ML doctoral students at MPIB and partner universities LMU and TUM.
