Cells use small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) to transfer cargo and chemical messengers to neighboring and distant cells.

Two molecular control factors play a decisive role in what is known as splicing, the cutting and assembly of mature messenger ...

Adverse genetic mutations can cause harm and are due to various circumstances. "Jumping genes" are one cause of mutations, ...

Among the many marvels of life is the cell's ability to divide and thus enable organisms to grow and renew themselves. For ...

For successful cell division, chromosomal DNA needs to be packed into compact rod-shaped structures. Defects in this process can lead to cell death or diseases like cancer. A new study has shown how ...

In the search for solutions to diseases like cancer, scientists are pursuing a new frontier in biology—the spatial and ...

Scientists at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the University of Cincinnati achieved a ...

Mitochondria are the powerhouses in our cells, producing the energy for all vital processes. Using cryo-electron tomography, researchers have now gained insight into the architecture of mitochondria ...

Update on IND-enabling data for MP0712, a Radio-DARPin targeting DLL3 and labeled with 212Pb, co-developed with Orano Med; entering FIH st ...

Just as cities must carefully manage the flow of cars in and out of downtown, cells regulate the movement of molecules into and out of the nucleus.

Scientists at the University of Leicester have captured the first detailed “molecular movie” showing DNA being unzipped at ...
