Uncovering the components used by Aspergillus fumigatus to avoid intracellular destruction broadens our understanding of the mold’s pathogenesis. 

In Salmonella, two seemingly similar antibiotic survival strategies result from very different molecular mechanisms.

Researchers find strong correlations between the composition of the human microbiome and genetic variation in immune-related pathways.

Sorting out T-cell functional and phenotypic heterogeneity depends on studying single cells.

Some of our resident viruses may be beneficial.

Researchers are abandoning the concept of a list of genes sequenced from a single individual, instead aiming for a way to describe all the genetic variation within a species.

From tossing out cross-contaminated cell lines to flagging genomic misnomers, a push is on to tidy up biomedical research.

In the evolutionary arms race between pathogens and hosts, genetic elements known as transposons are regularly recruited as assault weapons for cellular defense.

Date: June 22, 1998 Insect Cell Culture Media, Suppliers of Primary Cell Culture Media Advantages for Protein Expression Studies Since the mid-1950s cultures of insects--cockroaches, fruit flies, and leafhoppers, to name a few--have been the object of quiet study by physiologists and cell biologists. But along came genetic engineering and suddenly insect cultures have been put in the spotlight since they provide advantages over both bacterial and mammalian systems for recombinant protein prod

The Scientist’s annual competition uncovered a bonanza of interesting technologies that made their way onto the market and into labs this year.
