Living cells and tissues show a high capacity to absorb various chemical compounds from the surrounding environment. Although ...

A team of researchers used a new technique, called high-resolution template matching, or HRTM, to uncover in unprecedented detail the movement of ribosomes -- the molecular structures that synthesize ...

A new role has been uncovered for a cell's own RNA in fending off attacks by RNA viruses. Some of the cell's RNA molecules, researchers found, help regulate antiviral signaling. These signals are part ...

According to the new paper, researchers fear that mirror bacteria could be able to evade natural predators like phage viruses ...

Biologists used artificial intelligence to make discoveries about molecules and the brain, and overturned long-held assumptions about the immune system and RNA.

Experts sounded an alarm about the potentially lethal risks of creating mirror bacteria, synthetic organisms in which the ...

New research from the University of Chicago combines two powerful imaging techniques to study the complete structure of a ...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative disorder associated with a progressive decline in memory and ...

Almost 35% of drugs approved by the Food and Drug Administration work by targeting G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), proteins embedded in cell membranes that allow cells to communicate with each ...

Cytoskeleton rearrangements promote formation of a giant structure called a GUVac that stops cells from dying when they become detached from the extracellular matrix.

Portal Biotechnologies, Inc. ("Portal"), a cell engineering platform company, announced an oversubscribed $7M seed round led ...
