The methodology involves modifying histones and displaying them on the cell surface for analysis.

By harnessing a unique property of yeast, scientists can synthesize histones and the enzymes that modify these proteins, which spool DNA and influence gene expression.

His work centered on the mechanisms of glucose transport into cells.

In a trio of studies, researchers follow up on a 40-year-old finding that certain bacteriophages replace adenine with so-called diaminopurine, perhaps to avoid host degradation.

Men given high doses of two antihistamine drugs did not experience the same benefits of high intensity interval training that men on a placebo enjoyed, revealing some of the molecular underpinnings of exercise’s effect.

The same toxin targets different receptors in prey and conspecifics to deliver either a lethal or non-lethal blow.

The University of Oregon scientist studied the structure and function of chromatin, with the intent of designing new therapeutic tools.

Through groundbreaking studies on dengue and efforts to build scientific infrastructure in Latin America, the University of California, Berkeley, professor has bridged research with its benefits to society.

Aminoacyl tRNA synthetases picked up new protein domains that participate in vasculature formation around the same time that organisms evolved key adaptations in the circulatory system.

Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases, which help translate the genetic code into protein, also function in angiogenesis, fat metabolism, and more.

The use of yeast artificial chromosomes has enabled the rapid genetic reconstruction of the novel coronavirus.

A study finds similarities between cells that heal wounds and those that lead deadly cancerous invasions.

Two papers reveal that many commonly used research antibodies don’t bind as believed, highlighting the need to validate these reagents before use.
