There are "costs of life" that mechanical physics cannot calculate. A clear example is the energy required to keep specific biochemical processes active—such as those that make up photosynthesis, ...
Metabolism, far from being just a housekeeping function, underlies all changes in cell size and function ...
A new JSTAT study shows how to compute the minimum energy cells use to sustain certain metabolic pathways while suppressing ...
New research shows how engineered enzymes and cell-free systems can be combined to recycle CO2 into Acetyl-CoA and other ...
Cancer cells survive therapy by dynamically rewiring their metabolism in response to nutrient availability, microenvironmental stress, and therapeutic pressure. This article explains how dietary ...
Sepsis, a complex syndrome driven by a dysregulated host response to infection, is closely linked to both metabolic and ...
As people grow older, the same brain chemistry that once supported sharp thinking and stable mood can quietly start to work against them. A new wave of research is revealing how a single amino acid, ...
