Killing of farmed saltwater crocodiles involve stunning with a penetrative captive bolt device, followed by a cut across the nape of the neck and physical destruction of the brain to ensure death. This study was a welfare-based assessment of the use of a penetrative captive bolt device in saltwater crocodiles, to determine whether it satisfies the criteria of a humane stunning method and can be regarded as a direct killing method without the need for the application of an adjunct method. Methods used were electroencephalogram (EEG), observation of post-stun behavior, and examination of gross pathology of the cranium and brain.

CRISPR-Cas are adaptive immune systems in bacteria and archaea that utilize CRISPR RNA-guided surveillance complexes to target complementary RNA or DNA for destruction. Target RNA cleavage at regular intervals is characteristic of type III effector complexes. Here, we determine the structures of the Synechocystis type III-Dv complex, an apparent evolutionary intermediate from multi-protein to single-protein type III effectors, in pre- and post-cleavage states.

Self-cleaving ribozymes are versatile tools for synthetic biologists when it comes to controlling gene expression. Up to date, 12 different classes are known, and over the past decades more and more details about their structure, cleavage mechanisms and natural environments have been uncovered. However, when these motifs are applied to mammalian gene expression constructs, the outcome can often be unexpected.
