Membraneless organelles, also called biomolecular condensates, are changing how scientists think about protein chemistry, ...

Think back to that basic biology class you took in high school. You probably learned about organelles, those little "organs" ...

5 Gene regulation ensures that genes are expressed at the right times and in the right cells. Techniques such as Polymerase ...

Under this two-hit model, Brugge says, one normal copy of BRCA1 ought to be able to carry out DNA repair even when the other ...

For decades, biology textbooks have neatly compartmentalised cellular functions. Mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell, the cytoplasm is a bustling factory floor for protein synthesis, and the ...

Scientists have successfully immortalized lip cells, creating a clinically relevant lab model that enables testing of new ...

Metabolic enzymes, typically associated with energy production, are now discovered to also play essential roles in the nucleus, such as orchestrating cell division and DNA repair. This breakthrough, ...

A study described the three-dimensional architecture of turtle genomes, which fold in a configuration unlike any other animal observed so far.

Researchers reveal that metabolic enzymes known for their roles in energy production and nucleotide synthesis are taking on unexpected 'second jobs' within the nucleus, orchestrating critical ...

Researchers had given up on achieving photosynthesis in animals, Professor Sachihiro Matsunaga told Newsweek, but that didn't stop him and his colleagues.

Tool use isn't unique to humans. Chimpanzees use sticks as tools. Dolphins, crows, and elephants are known for their tool-use ...

"Cutting-edge single cell and spatial genomics are important driving forces for the HCA project," said John Randell, HCA Chief Alliance Officer. "MGI's involvement in the HCA discount program will ...
