July 7, 2023 —Researchers found that altered B cell function in children with mitochondrial disorders led to a weaker and less diverse antibody response to viral infections. Researchers analyzed gene activity of ...
July 6, 2023 —Researchers have developed peptides that can help combat bacteria growing in biofilms, which occur in up to 80% of human infections. The team of researchers have developed antimicrobial peptides that ...
July 5, 2023 —With a new method for examining virus samples researchers have solved an old riddle about how Hepatitis C virus avoids the human body's immune defenses. The result may have an impact on how we ...
July 3, 2023 —Chemists have measured the energy transfer between photosynthetic light-harvesting proteins. They discovered that the disorganized arrangement of light-harvesting proteins boosts the efficiency of ...
July 3, 2023 —The study combines a deep learning model with CRISPR screens to control the expression of human genes in different ways -- such as flicking a light switch to shut them off completely or by using a ...
June 30, 2023 —Insights into healing and aging by those who studied how a tiny sea creature regenerates an entire new body from only its mouth. The researchers sequenced RNA from Hydractinia symbiolongicarpus, a ...
June 29, 2023 —Despite being densely packed to fit into the nucleus, chromosomes storing our genetic information are always in motion. This allows specific regions to come into contact and thereby activate a gene. ...
June 28, 2023 —Urea reacts extremely quickly under the conditions that existed when our planet was newly formed. This new insight furthers our understanding of how life on Earth might have ...
June 27, 2023 —A milliliter of blood contains about 15 individual drops. For a person with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), each drop of blood could contain anywhere from fewer than 20 copies of the virus to ...
June 22, 2023 —Just as space holds infinite mysteries, when we zoom in at the level of biomolecules (one trillion times smaller than a meter), there is still so much to learn. Scientists are studying the ...
June 22, 2023 —Researchers have deciphered a biochemical mechanism that ensures that newly formed proteins are processed correctly when they leave the cell's own protein factories. This solves a decade-old ...
June 22, 2023 —An obscure aquatic plant has helped to explain how plants avoid cracking up under the stresses and strains of ...
June 22, 2023 —The herpes simplex virus-1 can sometimes cause a dangerous brain infection. Combining an anti-inflammatory and an antiviral could help in these cases, report ...
June 22, 2023 —Engineers designed a technology to probe connections between the brain and the digestive tract. Using fibers embedded with a variety of sensors, as well as optogenetic stimulation, the researchers ...
June 21, 2023 —Scientists have built a new, comprehensive AutoML platform designed for biologists with little to no ML experience. New automated machine learning platform enables easy, all-in-one analysis, design, ...
June 21, 2023 —DNA can mimic protein functions by folding into elaborate, three-dimensional structures, according to a new ...
June 21, 2023 —Researchers have outlined the structure and function of a protein complex which is required to repair damaged DNA and protect against ...
June 20, 2023 —Scientists have uncovered a new quality control system that removes damaged cells from early developing ...
June 20, 2023 —Researchers have used an unprecedented stem cell zoo to compare six different mammalian species and their developmental ...
June 15, 2023 —Scientists discover shattered chromosomal fragments are tethered together during cell division before being rearranged; destroying the tether may help prevent cancerous ...
