By freezing a crucial phosphoric acid complex to near absolute zero, scientists uncovered a single, unexpectedly stable structure at the heart of proton transport.

A novel method to manipulate the inner structure of cells connects several scientific fields and could represent a ...

For decades, scientists viewed the genome of a newly fertilised egg as a structural 'blank slate' – a disordered tangle of ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising new way that giant embryonic cells divide—without relying on the classic “purse-string” ring long thought essential for splitting a cell in two. Studying ...

Never-before-seen 3D reconstructions of human liver tissue have been created at a cellular level. The details obtained by a team of UW Medicine and University of Washington engineers and physicians ...

Human DNA constantly refolds in 3D space, and these looping dynamics regulate gene expression and cell identity.

A research team led by UAB researcher David Reverter has discovered the molecular mechanism that describes in detail the ...

New findings published in the journal Cell about the Andes virus, a hantavirus endemic to the southwestern U.S. and other ...

Crystalline polymers assembled inside tumor cell lysosomes rupture membranes, release iron, and trigger immune-activating ...

In the era of climate crisis, hydrogen vehicles are emerging as an alternative for eco-friendly mobility. However, the fuel cell, known as the "heart of the hydrogen car," still faces limitations of ...

Structural nanomedicine — what helped give us the COVID vaccine — may now be the key to a potent blood cancer treatment that’s had remarkable early results.

For decades, scientists believed a fertilized egg’s DNA began as a shapeless mass, only organizing itself once the embryo switched on its genes. But new research reveals that the genome is already ...
