Using multidimensional gas chromatography coupled to time-of-flight mass spectrometry, researchers have detected 10 aldehydes laboratory samples which were created to simulate material found in interstellar…
Two new researcher papers from Rice University detail how synthetic collagen fibers self-assemble via their sticky ends. Collagen is the most common protein in mammals,…
At this year’s American Society for Bone and Mineral Research conference, NASA scientists shared what they’ve learned from a half century of related space flight…
Researchers used Escherichia coli to interrupt the biological process that turns fatty acids into cell membranes, channeling the fatty acids along a different biological pathway…
Researchers identify a key mechanism to how basic muscle architecture is built, finding that mechanical tension is the essential trigger. Skeletal muscles are built from…
Using bacteria, Yale researchers rewrite most of the genetic instructions that encode all 20 amino acids, creating a specific 21st amino acid. Yale researchers have…
By targeting mitochondria with the anticancer drug cisplatin, chemists have developed a new way to kill cancer cells that have shown resistance to cisplatin. Cisplatin…
