A study focusing on analyzing cell models found universality in their movement—an important discovery that could impact both ...

Cell-free systems, which can express an easily detectable protein with a DNA or mRNA template without constraints of living ...

We created novel artificial cells by encapsulating a riboswitch-gene fusion with wheat germ extract in liposomes. These non-living cells promoted the expression of a glowing protein encoded in the ...

Every summer there they are again, blue-green algae. Why are they a problem, are they getting worse with climate change and ...

For successful cell division, chromosomal DNA needs to be packed into compact rod-shaped structures. Defects in this process can lead to cell death or diseases like cancer. A new study has shown how ...

NYU scientists have discovered that cancer cells work together to withstand challenging conditions, revealing new ...

During infections, the immune system needs to distinguish foreign antigens that are expressed by invading bacteria and ...

In this interview Prof. Dr. Kristina Kusche-Vihrog speaks about the nanomechanics of living cells and their implications for ...

The sugar glucose, which is the main source of energy in almost every living cell, has been revealed in a Stanford Medicine study to also be a master regulator of tissue differentiation - the process ...

Prototaxites, an extinct organism from the Devonian period, has been thought to be a fungus since its first fossil was ...

A research team has, for the first time in the world, revealed the identity and differentiation process of human cervical ...

Transgenic animals continue to play an essential role in many aspects of zebrafish research, including the development of disease models. The most widely used system for zebrafish transgenesis is the ...
