Parental chromosomes kept apart during embryo’s first division: Scientists show that mammalian life begins differently than we thought
It was long thought that during an embryo’s first cell division, one spindle is responsible for segregating the embryo’s chromosomes
Mutation and 3D modeling reveal new structure to cell division process
Cell division is one of the most fundamental processes of biology. It’s what allows all living things to grow, multiply
Cells can trap viruses in protein cage to stop their spread, study reveals
Researchers at The Francis Crick Institute in London have discovered that cells can trap viruses in a protein cage to
A change in bacteria’s genetic code holds promise of longer-lasting drugs
By altering the genetic code in bacteria, researchers at The University of Texas at Austin have demonstrated a method to
Key protein in sperm tail assembly identified
The group led by ICREA Research Professor Cayetano Gonzalez at the Institute for Research in Biomedicine (IRB Barcelona), in collaboration
Wriggling tadpoles may hold clue to how autism develops
You could say Hollis Cline’s lab at The Scripps Research Institute is building better tadpoles. To better understand how humans
Accepted or rejected? Uncovering how fate of B cell is determined: Researchers elucidate the mechanisms of B cell differentiation in the germinal center
When a pathogen evades or overcomes our innate immune defenses, the adaptive immune system kicks into action. There are two
‘Scaffolding’ method allows biochemists to see proteins in remarkable detail: Technique that uses cryo-electron microscopy should help scientists better understand disease-causing proteins
UCLA biochemists have achieved a first in biology: viewing at near-atomic detail the smallest protein ever seen by the technique
The absence of a single mitochondrial protein causes severe inflammation: A new study supports the notion that mitochondrial defects underlie a set of diseases of unknown origin that involve chronic muscle inflammation
The link between mitochondria and inflammation is still unclear. But it is known is that, for example, the accumulation of
