Monitoring RNA Regulation at the Molecular Level
Transcriptomics is defined as the study of the transcriptome—the entire set of RNA. It is also known as expression profiling because it is a study…
Researchers are Surprised by a Significant Finding about Mammalian Brains
The human brain is the most complex and poorly understood biological structure known to man. Our human brain is relatively large for our body size…
Simpler Imaging of the Dynamic Cellular Zoo
A protein has been genetically engineered to emit the shortest-wavelength fluorescence light reported to date. They achieved this by optimizing the interactions between the fluorescence…
The Oldest Pterodactylus Fossil discovered in Germany
Few pterosaurs lived near the places where fossils form. Because of the fragility of their bones, pterosaur fossils are frequently incomplete. Paleontologists must frequently gather…
When the Recipient has not Already had Antibiotic Treatment, Feces Microbiological Transplants Exhibit an Unpredictability
After numerous courses of suppressive antibiotics have completely eliminated the recipient microbial community, a fecal microbial transplant, which involves giving a recipient feces from a…
Researchers have Identified the Final Stages of the Biosynthesis of the Coca Leaf’s Tropane Alkaloids
Since the domestication of medicinal plants, humans has used a specific class of plant-derived chemicals called tropane alkaloids. These alkaloids are found throughout flowering plants,…
Study Reveals how HIV hides from Drugs and Immune Systems
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is the virus that causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), a disease characterized by progressive immune system deterioration that eventually leads to…
A Successful Model is Developed for Coronavirus Production
Coronaviruses (CoVs) are a large group of enveloped positive-sense single-stranded RNA viruses. They infect humans, other mammals, and avian species, as well as livestock and…
What Octopus Brains Have In Common With Human Brains
Animals with sophisticated neurological systems, such as cephalopods like octopuses, squids, and cuttlefish, are highly intelligent. The Max Delbrück Center’s Nikolaus Rajewsky-led research team has…
Scientists Discover Nature’s Super-selective Binding Method
EPFL researchers discovered that super-selective binding interactions between nanomaterials and protein surfaces are controlled not only by molecular density but also by pattern and structural…
Genome Research Reveals a New Branch in the Evolution of Fungi
According to a University of Alberta-led research team that used genome sequencing to give these strange creatures their own classification home, about 600 seemingly disparate…
