After much ado, Nature publishes the first report of a bird flu virus adapted for transmission in ferrets.
Genes that react to cellular sugar content are regulated by a long non-coding RNA via an unexpected mechanism
From accounts of deformed animals to scratch-and-sniff technology, Robert Boyle's early contributions to the Royal Society of London were prolific and wide ranging.
Turning a liability into an asset, cryo-electron microscopists exploit an artifact to probe protein structure.
One of the researchers who created a highly transmissible form of the bird flu virus has broken his silence and shared which mutations made it possible.
During development, the cells of an embryo change their pattern of gene expression, which allows them to detach from their original location and migrate to another part of the embryo, where the pattern changes again to allow formation of a new organ.
A flood of new discoveries has refined our definition of cancer stem cells. Now it’s up to human clinical trials to test if they can make a difference in patients.
Using RNA viruses to silence genes could optimize tissue targeting while reducing toxicity.
