Complex Molecules Could Hold the Secret to Identifying Alien Life A new system capable of identifying complex molecular signatures could aid in the search for…
For decades, researchers around the world have searched for ways to use solar power to generate the key reaction for producing hydrogen as a clean…
DeepMind and EMBL release the most complete database of predicted 3D structures of human proteins. Partners use AlphaFold, the AI system recognized last year as…
Cells undergoing cell death protect their neighbors to maintain tissue integrity. To enable tissue renewal, human tissues constantly eliminate millions of cells, without jeopardizing tissue…
To date, there are no effective antidotes against most virus infections. An interdisciplinary research team at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has now developed…
Accurate protein structure prediction now accessible to all. Scientists have waited months for access to highly accurate protein structure prediction since DeepMind presented remarkable progress…
A team of international researchers, led by the University of Bologna, has discovered the fossilized remains of methane-cycling microbes that lived in a hydrothermal system…
A new international study has found that the key properties of the spikes of SARS-CoV-2 virus which causes COVID-19 are consistent with those of several…
Using Argonne National Laboratory’s Advanced Photon Source, researchers have determined the structure of an enzyme that plays a key role in the spread of cancer…
Not only animals and humans host a complex community of microorganisms – plants do this as well. Researchers at ETH Zurich have recently published two…
Scientists using the Advanced Photon Source show how ‘zinc sparks’ — the showers of zinc ions released by mammalian eggs immediately after fertilization — also…
New biodegradable nanoparticles for photodynamic therapy that enter cancer cells and ‘shut down’ their mitochondria power stations co-designed by TU/e researchers. An emerging nanomedicine cancer…
Children are always going to find cunning ways to bunk off school, and the latest trick is to fake a positive COVID-19 lateral flow test…
Scientists isolated a molecule, extracted from the leaves of the European chestnut tree, with the power to neutralize dangerous, drug-resistant staph bacteria. Frontiers in Pharmacology…
A unique study of ancient diamonds has shown that the basic chemical composition of the Earth’s atmosphere which makes it suitable for life’s explosion of…
Scientists have taken the first steps in developing a new method of identifying the movements of criminals using chemical analysis of soil and dust found…
Researchers at the UAB and the UniZar have identified a human peptide found in the brain that blocks the α-synuclein aggregates involved in Parkinson’s disease…
Proteins have been quietly taking over our lives since the COVID-19 pandemic began. We’ve been living at the whim of the virus’s so-called “spike” protein,…
