Modeling the miniscule: High-resolution design of nanoscale biomolecules
(PhysOrg.com) -- A key element of both biotechnology and nanotechnology is – perhaps unsurprisingly – computational modeling. Frequently, in silico nanostructure design and simulation precedes actual ...
Researchers provide atomic view of a histone chaperone
Mayo Clinic researchers have gained insights into the function of a member of a family of specialized proteins called histone chaperones. Using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography, they ...

How bookmarking genes pre-cell division hastens their subsequent reactivation
In order for cells of different types to maintain their identities even after repeated rounds of cell division, each cell must "remember" which genes were active before division and pass along that memory to its daughter ...
