Combination of nucleic acid nanotechnology and cryo-EM gives unprecedented insights into the structures of large and small RNAs, advancing RNA biology and drug design. We…
Research team reveals what drives the circadian rhythms in cyanobacteria. Scientists want to increase their understanding of circadian rhythms, those internal 24-hour biological clock cycles…
When something goes wrong during DNA replication, cells call their own version of 911 to pause the process and fix the problem — a failsafe…
Tetrahymena, a tiny single celled-organism, turns out to be hiding a surprising secret: it’s doing respiration – using oxygen to generate cellular energy – differently…
Scientists have now observed a remarkable mechanism by which polymer materials are formed. Under the influence of shear forces, nanoparticles from the secretion of velvet…
Scientists at the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Physiology in Dortmund have decoded the three-dimensional structure of the calcium channel with unprecedented accuracy. Whenever muscles…
