Researchers at the University of California, Davis and the USDA Agricultural Research Service (ARS) have developed RNAi-based compositions and methods that enhance miticide efficacy to control resistant Varroa destructor mites.

Researchers at the University of California, Davis have developed a protein-based composition and method that protects bioactive bacteria from thermal and osmotic stress during dehydration to maintain viability and shelf life.

Researchers at the University of California, Davis have developed a method that uses phenolic-rich agro-industrial residues to protect and stabilize beneficial microbes for improved shelf life and bioactivity.

Researchers at the University of California, Davis have developed an engineered thermostable lipase capable of efficiently degrading polyurethane plastics at elevated temperatures.

Researchers at the University of California, Davis have developed an innovative platform for creating genetically encoded fluorescent biosensors capable of 1) assessing the formation of GPCR homo and heterodimers, and 2) determining how dimerization impacts protomer conformation in response to ligands.The UC Davis IPN has developed a suite of ~24 biosensors based on GPCR dimers.Collectively called, dimerLights, these modular biosensors have the ability to identify novel dimeric drug targets and assess the impact of ligands on their conformations.In addition to the ~24 biosensors that UC Davis has already developed, the modular platform in principle can easily be adapted to enable the discovery and evaluation of broader GPCR homo/heterodimers than have been tested so far.

Researchers at the University of California, Davis have developed a therapy that combines bioactive lipids with antiretroviral drugs to accelerate viral suppression and promote gut mucosal repair in HIV treatment.

Researchers at the University of California, Davis have developed a novel hybrid microbial-derived oxylipin and endocannabinoid-like molecule designed to enhance gut and brain health by improving barrier integrity, reducing inflammation, and providing neuroprotection.

Researchers at the University of California, Davis have developed advanced epigenetic methods and systems that detect and assess developmental risks in embryos caused by maternal stress prior to conception.
