Proteins that are no longer needed, defective, or potentially harmful are labeled with a molecular "tag" and dismantled in ...

The constant, energy-driven motion inside living cells may generate electricity in a way no one fully recognized before.

Scientists have found a way to make perovskite solar cells not only highly efficient but also remarkably stable, addressing ...

Biology has always been an unruly science. Cells divide when they want to. Genes switch on and off like temperamental lights.

The fungal compound verticillin A, discovered more than 50 years ago, has long been regarded for its potential ...

Cells have a remarkable housekeeping system: proteins that are no longer needed, defective, or potentially harmful are labeled with a molecular "tag" and dismantled in the cellular recycling machinery ...

Human bodies are usually described as chemical engines, powered by glucose and oxygen. Yet a wave of new research suggests ...

As people grow older, their immune systems do not simply slow down, they often become locked into a simmering, ...

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have synthesised for the first time a complex fungal compound ...

Stanford scientists have uncovered how mRNA COVID-19 vaccines can very rarely trigger heart inflammation in young men — and how that risk might be reduced. They found that the vaccines can spark a two ...

Plants have an extraordinary ability to sense tissue damage and quickly rebuild their protective outer layers, a process ...

Scientists grow ultra-uniform perovskite nanocrystals at room temperature, boosting yields and brighter light for future ...
