Cyanobacteria began contributing oxygen to Earth's mostly noxious atmosphere more than 2 billion years ago. The photosystem ...

Due to proteostasis stress induced by aging or disease, misfolded proteins can form toxic intermediate species of aggregates and eventually mature into less toxic inclusion bodies (IBs). Here, using a ...

Our guts are home to trillions of bacteria, and research over the last few decades has established how essential they are to ...

The model has uncovered a hidden layer of molecular code that shapes biological organization, adding new dimensions of ...

The study explores molecular mechanisms underlying synaptic plasticity - the strengthening or weakening of neuronal connections that enable learning and memory.

New research shows that a network of subcellular structures similar to those responsible for propagating molecular signals that make muscles contract are also responsible for transmitting signals in ...

A recent study investigates how polyester microdroplets, potential precursors to modern cells, could form under realistic early Earth conditions. Researchers pushed these conditions to the limits, ...
