A research team led by Prof. Xu Pingyong from the Institute of Biophysics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed an innovative approach to visualize and rapidly screen small peptide knockins. The new approach, termed ...
Griffith University researchers have shown that the shape and surface chemistry of microscopic "re-entrant" structures—tiny overhanging caps arranged like mushroom tops—can tune how cancer cells stick, spread and multiply.
University of Michigan researchers have developed a tool powered by artificial intelligence that can help them examine the behavior of a single molecule out of a sea of information in the blink of an eye—or at least overnight.
A new analytical method is revealing how conservationists can further boost breeding programs dedicated to saving some of the world's most threatened species, according to new research led by the University of Sheffield and ...
A new study, led by researchers at the University of Liverpool, has revealed how pathogenic bacteria construct tiny protein-based compartments, known as Eut microcompartments, which enable them to digest ethanolamine—a nutrient ...
Scientists have sought to capture the first days of how a person comes to be, by recreating those early moments in a lab via models made up of induced pluripotent stem cells, or IPSCs.
Just as life pulsates in big vibrant cities, it also prospers in crowded environments inside cells. The interior of cells is densely packed with biomolecules like proteins and nucleic acids. How is all this material distributed ...
Researchers have developed a new type of microscope that can acquire extremely large, high-resolution pictures of non-flat objects in a single snapshot. This innovation could speed up research and medical diagnostics or be ...
Every minute, all around us, battles are fought on a microscopic level. Bacteriophages (also known as phages) are viruses that infect and kill bacteria. Just like viruses that infect us, these phages seek to steal the resources ...
Burning, blisters, pain: More than 40 million people worldwide are infected with the herpes virus every year. The virus can pose a serious threat to newborns and people with weakened immune systems. Researchers in Hamburg ...
