Consequently, changing a gene's codons can disrupt its protein function. Even the FDA think this topic is important. ## [Scaling cell and gene therapies with DNA synthesis](https://www.camenabio.com/resources/scaling-cell-and-gene-therapies-with-dna-synthesis) Synthetic DNA sequences with fewer constraints on sequence complexity are crucial to drive cell and gene therapies forward. Here’s why. ## [The nexus between climate change and healthcare](https://www.camenabio.com/resources/the-nexus-between-climate-change-and-healthcare) If healthcare were a country it would be the 5th largest polluter on the planet, representing 4.4% of the global total. ## [Personalized mRNA vaccines](https://www.camenabio.com/resources/personalized-mrna-vaccines) As the potential of mRNA vaccines to meet a significant, unfulfilled medical demand becomes increasingly clear, we’ll need greater access to gene-length DNA far beyond what’s available right now. ## [Why are we TdT-free?](https://www.camenabio.com/resources/heres-why-were-tdt-free) In recent years, there has been significant interest in using an enzyme called Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) to produce synthetic DNA. If we're a cutting-edge DNA synthesis company, why aren't we using TdT? ## [Helping CRISPR-Cas technology unleash its potential](https://www.camenabio.com/resources/helping-crispr-cas-technology-unleash-its-potential) We all know by now that the CRISPR-Cas system is nothing short of a revolution for gene editing, but DNA synthesis can’t keep up with CRISPR. ## [Synthetic biology and the discovery of new medicines](https://www.camenabio.com/resources/synthetic-biology-and-the-discovery-of-new-medicines) Over recent years the pharmaceutical industry has gradually turned towards synthetic biology to assist with the discovery of new medicines. ## [100 ways to make 1 gene](https://www.camenabio.com/resources/100-ways-to-make-1-gene) To produce a synthetic gene, we first divide it up into smaller pieces of DNA that are synthesised. Genes can be thousands of base pairs long, so there are many different ways to do this. ## [World mental health day](https://www.camenabio.com/resources/world-mental-health-day) Did you know that today is World Mental Health Day? ## [Camena Bioscience close $10m Series A financing as demand for DNA synthesis technology increases](https://www.camenabio.com/resources/camena-bioscience-close-series-a-financing) Camena Bioscience, a synthetic biology company providing genes to the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, today announced it has closed a $10m Series A financing round, led by Mercia. ## [Celebrating the 10,000 Black Interns summer programme 2023](https://www.camenabio.com/resources/celebrating-the-10000-black-interns-summer-programme-2023) Divina Newman and Nika Pierre joined the Camena team for 8 weeks over the summer.
