Scientists from Skoltech and the University of Potsdam have developed a physical theory that sheds light on how molecular ...

Researchers at Aarhus University report a proof-of-concept DNA needle inspired by bacteriophages that can deliver molecules directly into cells and help them remain active. In laboratory experiments, ...

DNA inside the nucleus is not packed as a rigid regular fiber—linker histone H1 dynamically binds and loosely "glues" ...

While extracellular DNA persistence substantially influences soil microbiome investigations, its degradation kinetics remain poorly quantified. Here, we developed a primer-labeled DNA approach coupled ...

Nanomedicine prompts RNA to make protein-based drugs to treat diseases. Now we can fine-tune protein production by dialling ...

Stanford develops protein-to-DNA method enabling high-throughput protein sequencing Technique detects up to 1,000 times more ...

Dozens of new discoveries reveal that defenses evolved by bacteria and viruses billions of years ago still define our own ...

Measure twice, cut once — a carpenter’s line that fits this Toronto Maple Leafs mess like a glove. You don’t rush a joint and hope it holds; you check your angles, pick the right tool, and only then ...

When do peripheral nerves develop? Researchers used "mosaic barcodes" to prove that neural crest cells commit to their ...

Millions of neurons branch throughout our bodies, keeping them in close communication with our brains. This peripheral ...

Photosynthetic bacteria helped shape Planet Earth. Among them are cyanobacteria that produced the oxygen in our atmosphere ...

Variants in GLP‑1 and GIP receptor genes partly determine weight loss and nausea risk on GLP‑1 drugs, signaling a shift from ...
