How Chromosomes Interact with Molecular Clusters in the Nucleus?
Chemists have discovered how nuclear bodies called nucleoli to interact with chromosomes in the nucleus, and how those interactions help the nucleoli exist as stable…
Making New Drugs with a Better-fitting Molecular ‘Belt’
The most common pharmaceuticals on the market are created by connecting rings of molecules to create drugs that treat conditions such as pain, depression, and…
Nanoparticles that Communicate with Cancer Cells are developed by Scientists
Nanoscale devices are 100 to 10,000 times smaller than human cells. They have the same size as large biological molecules (“biomolecules”) like enzymes and receptors.…
Glysine Transporter opens up possibilities for Drug Development in the field of Psychiatry
Glycine has the ability to stimulate or inhibit neurons in the brain, allowing it to control complex functions. Researchers have taken a significant step toward…
In Mice, the Supplement Treats Schizophrenia by Restoring Neuron Structure
In mice with a genetic mutation that causes schizophrenia, a simple dietary supplement reduces behavioral symptoms. Researchers concluded that the supplement likely protects proteins that…
Scientists determine how Antioxidants are Imported into Mitochondria
Mitochondrial function, specifically its role in cellular redox/oxidative balance, is critical in controlling cell life and death and has been linked to a variety of…
How Cells Select Active Genes Correctly?
Cells must be able to precisely control which of their genetic material’s many genes they use. This is done in transcription factories, which are molecular…
The Evolution of Underground Microbes is Revealed in a New Study
According to a paper correlating Earth’s deep biosphere with geologic history, Precambrian cratons – some of Earth’s oldest rocks – were uninhabitable for microbes for…
Antibiotic Resistance is Determined in Less Than 90 Minutes
A technique that uses an electric probe to measure the metabolic activity of bacteria can identify antibiotic resistance in less than 90 minutes, a significant…
