When Philip Sontag first visited Antarctica as a Ph.D. student, he brought back an unusual souvenir: a huge bag of penguin ...

Changes to the intermediate filament (IF) protein, vimentin, were found to promote tumor growth by increasing cancer stemness in an oestrogen independent manner. Targeting vimentin and/or the long ...

Synthetic biologists from Yale were able to re-write the genetic code of an organism—a novel genomically recoded organism ...

“One of the goals [of astrobiology] is to go to [other worlds] and look for microorganisms, but in the meantime there’s so ...

Proteins are the workhorses that keep our cells running, and there are many thousands of types of proteins in our cells, each performing a specialized function. Researchers have long known that the ...

Years before tau tangles show up in brain scans of patients with Alzheimer's disease, a biomarker test can detect small amounts of the clumping-prone tau protein and its misfolded pathological forms ...

VF-5ms has a slightly higher polarity than the VF-1ms, resulting in a better selectivity for aromatic compounds. This selectivity, combined with superior inertness, also makes these columns ...

the authors report a chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed asymmetric trifunctionalization, utilizing situ-generated α-Halo Rh-Carbenes as metal carbynoids, synthesizing chiral α-cyclic ketal amino ...

Agilent J&W HP-5ms has very low bleed characteristics that are ideal for GC/MS.The column has excellent inertness for active compounds, including acidic and basic compounds, and improved signal-to ...
