Cyanobacteria—ancient microbes that oxygenated Earth and made complex life possible—are still revealing surprises billions of ...

Scientists from Skoltech and the University of Potsdam have developed a physical theory that sheds light on how molecular ...

Cancer cells excel at evading detection, but subtle chemical differences set them apart from healthy cells. Now, a team of ...

Mitochondria don’t just generate energy—they also carefully organize their own DNA in a surprisingly elegant way. Scientists have discovered that a long-overlooked phenomenon called “mitochondrial ...

The microbial arms race, in which bacteria battle with each other, viruses, and other organisms for space and nutrients, has ...

In this work, the authors demonstrated that blue light mediated mitochondrial contacts attenuated blue light induced mitochondrial dysfunction, and validated this in human cells and C. elegans. This ...

A study reveals how MLKL drives stem cell aging by damaging mitochondria without causing cell death, reducing regenerative ...

Single-cell analysis fails to find a functional link between the organization of chromatin domain organization and gene activity.

Ribosomal RNA (rRNA), made from many copies of ribosomal DNA (rDNA), is the core component that powers ...

A principle of DNA synthesis that has dominated biology textbooks for decades could be upended. An enzyme has been discovered ...
