St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital scientists solved the 3D structure of a major protein complex in cilia, signaling appendages found on cells. The structure was captured at the highest resolution ...
Researchers from the Göttingen Cluster of Excellence Multiscale Bioimaging (MBExC) have uncovered the 3D structure of the membrane proteins myoferlin and dysferlin using high-resolution cryo ...
I HAVE pointed out (Annals. Mag. Nat. Hist., September, 1912) that Stromatoporoids are Foraminifera, but I did not give an explanation of the structure of the skeleton. I now find that the clue to ...
Mapping the Genome’s 3D Structure. The research team discovered that the genome arranges itself into two distinct compartments: one active and accessible, the other more tightly packed and inactive.
For nearly half a century, Ms. Blue–an 87-foot-long whale skeleton—has welcomed over a million visitors to Long Marine Laboratory and the Seymour Marine Discovery Center, spurring interest in marine ...
The Seymour Marine Discovery Center announced that the aging metal structures that support the blue whale skeleton on display outside of the center, known as “Ms. Blue,” are unsafe and will be ...
The discoveries could also help scientists working on stem cell therapies, since coaxing a stem cell to become a neuron or heart cell requires shifting it from one genetic program to another — each ...
A volcanic eruption in what’s now Morocco preserved ancient trilobite specimens in nearly pristine condition about half a billion years ago, according to a new study.
