[ad_1] Ribosomes synthesize all proteins in cells. Studies conducted primarily in yeast have revealed much about how ribosomes are assembled, but a Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitaet (LMU) team in Munich now reports that assembling ribosomes in human cells requires factors that have no counterparts in more model organisms. simple. In each cell, hundreds …

[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] In the absence of euphorbia – their favorite food – the caterpillars of monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus) go from peaceful feeders to aggressive fighters. Researchers reporting in the journal iScience on November 19 he observed that caterpillars with less access to food were more likely to lunge at others …
