"Mirror bacteria" could evade people's immune systems, they suggest, causing deadly infections. Such infections could also ...

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 ...

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

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 ...

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

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