Bacteria on the hunt

Research team from Friedrich Schiller University Jena discovers ‘impossible’ unicellular organism. All higher organisms such as fungi, plants, animals and humans consist of eukaryotic cells. These are cells that have…

Second genetic sensor for DNA methylation discovered

DNA methylation is a process in which a methyl group is attached to the cytosine base of the DNA molecule, and a major way that DNA is epigenetically marked. Epigenetic…

Affordable, rapid blood test for brain cancer

Researchers at the University of Notre Dame have developed a novel, automated device capable of diagnosing glioblastoma, a fast-growing and incurable brain cancer, in less than an hour. The average…

Novel organic redox-active molecules for flow batteries

Organic redox-active molecules (ORAMs) are abundant and diverse, offering significant potential for cost-effective and sustainable energy storage, particularly in aqueous organic flow batteries (AOFBs). However, ensuring the stability of the…

Controlling molecular electronics with rigid, ladder-like molecules

As electronic devices continue to get smaller and smaller, physical size limitations are beginning to disrupt the trend of doubling transistor density on silicon-based microchips approximately every two years according…

3D shapes of viral proteins point to previously unknown roles

Scientists uncover an ancient immune-evading strategy shared by animal viruses and viruses that infect bacteria; findings may help in the development of new antiviral therapies. Viruses are tricky to keep…
