Scientists have identified a small flaw in the enzyme GPX4 that prevents neurons from defending themselves. This mutation, ...

Researchers at University Medicine Oldenburg have developed an AI tool that delivers fewer false-positive results than ...

Membrane transport is the means by which small molecules and biopolymers permeate a cell membrane. Membranes are lipid bilayers exhibiting selective permeability, meaning that they are permeable to ...

Multicellular cyanobacteria do something strikingly sophisticated with their DNA, toggling key genes on and off as day turns to night so different cells can specialize without starving the colony of ...

Inside every human cell, six feet of DNA folds into a nucleus that is only a few micrometers wide, yet still manages to ...

Ion channels in the nervous system refers to the study of ion channels – proteins allowing charged particles to cross membranes – found in neurons and glia, where they are involved in maintaining the ...

For a carbon-neutral bioeconomy, processes are needed that can efficiently capture CO2 and convert it into valuable products.

Nicotine addiction remains one of the most persistent public health challenges worldwide, driven by changes in the brain that ...

Researchers have uncovered a surprising way the brain switches pain on, revealing that neurons can release an enzyme outside the cell that activates pain signals without disrupting normal movement or ...

Researchers discovered that a tiny structural feature of the enzyme GPX4 helps keep neurons safe. A rare mutation removes ...

Nobel laureate David Baker’s latest foundation model can design proteins that interact to any biomolecule for broad biotech applications.

RFdiffusion2, RFdiffusion3, and Riff-Diff each solve different structural problems in computational enzyme design ...
