Plant cells host a variety of organelles segregated into distinct functional groups. Among those organelles, the nucleus, ...

The UB team that discovered how a gene found in 75% of us protects against neurodegeneration has now found that this same gene enhances immune function as well. The new findings were published in ...

Gene dysregulation is a hallmark of disease, driving pathogenic phenotypes and poor patient outcomes. RNA binding proteins are often important human gene effectors, controlling RNA synthesis, ...

The ongoing GARDian3 study is designed to assess whether a single subretinal administration of OCU410ST can slow structural ...

Elizabeth Kellogg, PhD, St. Jude Department of Structural Biology, used cryo-EM to study the evolutionary journey of Fanzor2, a compact eukaryotic genome-editing protein with huge potential. (MEMPHIS, ...

Researchers have mapped how "histone bivalency" acts as a molecular clock for brain development. By holding genes in a poised state, this mechanism ensures neurons mature only after completing ...

In back-to-back studies published in Nature, researchers from Purdue University and Columbia University report a naturally ...

Researchers have found that certain bacteria carry a naturally occurring system, built from repurposed CRISPR components, ...

The brain is the most complex organ in the human body. Different parts of the brain perform a variety of functions, all of ...

Peptide science has expanded rapidly in recent decades, revealing molecules with intriguing signaling roles that may influence diverse regenerative and organizational processes within an organism.
