In 1869, Swiss scientist Friedrich Miescher isolated a mysterious substance from cell nuclei—an overlooked finding that would ...

Proteins are the building blocks of life. These biomolecules comprise chains of amino acids that fold into precise shapes to ...

How physically magnifying objects using a key ingredient in diapers has opened an unprecedented view of the microbial world.

The conversion of large-scale, complex mass spectrometry data into meaningful structural insights through ChemEcho, a machine learning embedding method, published in August by investigators at ...

As we age, our cells don’t just wear down—they reorganize. Researchers found that cells actively remodel a key structure called the endoplasmic reticulum, reducing protein-producing regions while ...

An international collaboration led by the Fritz Haber Institute (FHI) has successfully mapped Electron-Transfer-Mediated ...

Over the past two decades, researchers have learned that DNA inside the cell nucleus naturally folds into a network of ...

For decades, scientists assumed that order drives efficiency. Yet in the bustling machinery of mitochondria—the organelles ...

Proteins are the molecular machines of cells. They are produced in protein factories called ribosomes based on their ...

DNA's iconic double helix does more than "just" store genetic information. Under certain conditions it can temporarily fold into unusual shapes. Researchers at Umeå University, Sweden, have now shown ...

Congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB) is caused by mutations in a specific calcium channel. A comprehensive proteomic study by researchers at the University of Innsbruck now reveals how these ...
