Bacteria are amongst the simplest of organisms – they are made of single cells. Their cell structure is simpler than the cells of animals, plants and fungi.

Table 1 below provides an overview of the key features of a prokaryotic cell: Table 1. The structure and function of key prokaryotic cell structures. Prokaryotes have ribosomes but they are smaller ...

Deep within the nucleus of every cell lies a structure smaller than a pinpoint that may hold the secret to aging. Scientists ...

The most complex engineering of human cell lines ever has been achieved by scientists, revealing that our genomes are more ...

Up to a tonne of drugs from a suspected ‘mothership’ discovered off the Kerry coast has already been transported out of the country, security sources ...

But filopodia can also wreak havoc: metastatic cancer cells use them to invade new regions of the body. Filopodia are composed of hexagonal bundles of proteins that give them structure and strength.

MIT chemists use generative AI to predict 3D genomic structures quickly, a process far faster than current methods.

The 9 cm² cell consists of a top cell based on a perovskite absorber and a bottom cell with a heterojunction (HJT) structure.

MIT chemists found a new way to determine 3D genome structures, using generative AI, that can predict thousands of genome structures in minutes, making it much speedier than existing methods for ...
