Protein complex in bacterial cell membrane acts like a rotary motor to recruit DNA-degrading enzymes to defend against phage ...

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 ...

A complex molecular machine, the spliceosome, ensures that the genetic information from the genome, after being transcribed into mRNA precursors, is correctly assembled into mature mRNA. Splicing is a ...

Scientists have translated nanoscale experimental and computational data into precise 3D representations of bacteria, yeast ...

Neurons are cells in the body that are responsible for transmitting ... Interneurons have a multipolar structure that allows them to receive multiple signals and then send a unified command to another ...

It feels like the Splinter Cell remake has been on its way for a ... with Chaos Theory being the first to switch things up with a more open structure. It primarily involved tight corridors ...

Laura Young, MD, is a board-certified OB-GYN. She currently works as a laborist. Yeast infections are not sexually transmitted infections (STIs), but it's possible to transmit one to a partner ...
