Animals, from worms and sponges to jellyfish and whales, contain anywhere from a few thousand to tens of trillions of nearly genetically identical cells. Depending on the organism, these cells arrange ...

This study identifies a kinesin motor at kinetochores that teams up with a key mitotic checkpoint protein to orchestrate proper chromosome movement during plant cell division, revealing a plant ...

New AI Tool Reveals Single-Cell Structure of Chromosomes -- In 3D May 28, 2025 — In a major leap forward for genetic and biomedical research, scientists have developed a powerful new artificial ...

For a living cell to divide successfully, each daughter cell must inherit the correct genetic material. In eukaryotes, segregation of duplicated chromosomes is performed by the mitotic spindle, a ...

“Our idea is that instead of modifying an existing chromosome, we design it from the ground up,” explained Prof Harris. “We’re rethinking what plants can do for us. This synthetic chromosome could one ...

Plant cells are fundamental organizational units that mediate the production, transport, and storage of our primary food sources, and they sequester a significant proportion of the world's carbon. New ...

Cambridge researchers have secured £7.5 million to build "programmable plants," a revolutionary initiative poised to ...

Researchers at MUSC Hollings Cancer Center are working to pursue better options for people with treatment-resistant cancer.

What actually is 'nuclear fusion' energy and what does it mean for people in Nottinghamshire? We've answered some of these ...

The optimization of plant productivity in indoor horticulture relies heavily on artificial light systems, which serve as the primary light source for plant growth. Although light-emitting diodes (LEDs ...
