Beer: Therapeutic Properties Discovered in Yeast Component

Researchers at the Ca' Foscari University of Venice have modified beer yeast cells to produce macrocyclic peptides with potential therapeutic properties.

The new method allows for rapid screening of billions of micro-factories, accelerating drug discovery and is more environmentally friendly than existing techniques.

Alessandro Angelini, coordinator of the study, emphasized that the technology aims to deliver advanced therapies to specific cells, revolutionizing treatments and benefiting patient health.
