Professor Choi’s research team at SNU has identified the Vibrio vulnificus transcription factors at a genome-wide scale and characterized their functions comprehensively, proposing novel targets to control the pathogen.

Professor Sunghee Baek's team at SNU identified PHF16 as key to intestinal homeostasis after injury. PHF16 restores the epithelium by activating RAR/RXR target genes via HBO1 histone acetylation and suppressing YAP/TAZ via CDC73 ubiquitination. Its role offers insights for gut repair therapies.

Emission lines from complex organic molecules in B335 were observed in four epochs, spanning a luminosity burst of about 10 years duration. The emission lines increased dramatically in intensity as the luminosity increased, but they have decreased only slightly as the luminosity has decreased.

Despite a dramatic increase in ischemic stroke incidence worldwide, effective therapies for attenuating sequelae of cerebral infarction are lacking. This study investigates the use of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) induced toward glia-like cells (ghMSCs) to ameliorate chronic sequelae resulting from cerebral infarction.

HEPN-MNT, a type VII TA module, comprises the HEPN toxin and the MNT antitoxin, which acts as a nucleotidyltransferase that transfers the NMP moiety to the corresponding HEPN toxin, thereby interfering with its toxicity.

Professor Ki Hoon Lee's research team from the Department of Agriculture, Forestry, and Bioresources at SNU developed a biomimetic spinning process by leveraging silk fibroin's liquid-liquid phase separation, followed by acidification and shear force to produce fibers.

Prof. Doil Choi and research team identified multiple resistance genes against various Phytophthora pathogens that threat wide-range of important crop species

Seoul National University College of Engineering announced that a research team led by Professor Seung Hwan Ko from the Department of Mechanical Engineering has developed an eco-friendly air purification system using microbubble filters instead of conventional solid filters.

Although prior studies showed the association between the amount of alcohol ingestion and the risk of depression and suicide, there has been a lack of research considering changes in alcohol intake over time.

Understanding the geometric properties of quantum states and their implications in fundamental physical phenomena is a core aspect of contemporary physics.

Ulleungdo, a volcanic island located in the back-arc basin (East Sea/Sea of Japan) of the Japanese arc, is one of the Cenozoic intraplate volcanoes in Northeast (NE) Asia.

Seoul National University College of Engineering announced that researchers from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering’s Optical Engineering and Quantum Electronics Laboratory have developed an optical design technology that dramatically reduces the volume of cameras with a folded lens system utilizing “metasurfaces,” a next-generation nano-optical device.
