Kanazawa University, report in ACS Applied Nano Materials a new method to precisely measure nuclear elasticity—the stiffness ...

Researchers have identified a previously unknown “hook-like” domain in the tail of the kinesin-2 motor protein that explains how these molecular machines select the right cargo inside cells.

Leiden University, together with Utrecht University, the LUMC and 10 other Dutch universities and institutes, has been awarded a grant of more than ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) and “protein language” models can speed the design of monoclonal antibodies that prevent or ...

AFM, which inserts a nanoneedle probe directly into cells, scientists revealed how cancer cell nuclei stiffen or soften ...

The progression of Alzheimer's disease is poorly understood, but new research may have found how the plaques that cause it ...

For decades, scientists have known that motor proteins like kinesin-2 ferry vital cargo along microtubule "highways" inside cells. But how these molecular vehicles identify and bind to the right cargo ...

Angelica Facoetti explains five facts accelerator physicists need to know about radiobiology to work at the cutting edge of ...

Researchers at Göttingen Campus, Germany, have succeeded for the first time in examining the tiny synapses in the inner ...

The RAD52-DNA complex is a dynamic guardian of genomic stability. When this balance falters, cells may either self-destruct or, worse, turn cancerous.

The activation and deactivation of apoptosis is a promising field of research in basic biomedical research. The team led by Prof. Franz Hagn from the Chair of Structural Membrane Biochemistry at the ...
