[ad_1] You may not normally think about the smell of corals or how the smell changes during heat stress. However, this is what researchers from the University of Technology Sydney (UTS), the University of Sydney and Southern Cross University set out to investigate on the Great Barrier Reef. Each organism …

[ad_1] Within each cell, thousands of different proteins form the machinery that keeps all living things, from humans and plants to microscopic bacteria, alive and well. Almost all diseases, including cancer, dementia, and even infectious diseases such as COVID-19, are related to how these proteins work. Because the function of …

[ad_1] COLUMBUS, Ohio – New research has identified and described a cellular process that, despite what the textbooks say, has remained elusive to scientists until now – precisely as the copy of genetic material that, once initiated, is conveniently deactivated. . The discovery concerns a key process essential to life: …

[ad_1] Knowing exactly where proteins are frustrated could go a long way in making better drugs. This is one of the findings of a new study by Rice University scientists looking for mechanisms that stabilize or destabilize key sections of biomolecules. Atomic-scale models by rice theorist Peter Wolynes, lead author …

[ad_1] Physicists Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitaet (LMU) of Munich introduced a new method that allows to systematically characterize biological modeling systems with the help of mathematical analysis. The trick is to use geometry to characterize dynamics. Many life processes that take place in biological cells depend on the formation of self-organized molecular patterns. …

[ad_1] DURHAM, NC – The bacterium that causes tularemia, the tick-borne disease, is a lean and mean infecting machine. It carries a relatively small genome and a unique set of infectious tools, including a collection of chromosomal genes called the “island of pathogenicity”. A team of researchers from Duke University, …
