Every new life begins after a genetic shuffle. When organisms make eggs or sperm, maternal and paternal chromosomes pair up ...
Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research have mapped the molecular landscape of the mouse hippocampus, a ...
When a woman becomes pregnant, the outcome of that pregnancy depends on many things—including a crucial event that happened ...
GFP knockin mouse tissue and ultra-fresh synaptonerosomes indicate that the postsynaptic density is a not a conserved feature of glutamatergic synapses in the mouse brain.
These chains come in a wide range of lengths. In humans a typical protein is about 400 amino acids long; some are a lot longer. Molecules of RNA, one of the two nucleic acids, can reach up to 100,000 ...
Structural and computational approaches uncover the molecular basis for dimerization, open-closed conformational transitions, and the dynamic behavior of the human angiotensin-I converting enzyme ...
They derive their energy from differences in the concentration of hydrogen ions across some of these membranes ...
Understanding how drugs interact with their molecular targets at the atomic level is central to modern drug discovery.
Protein folding is essential for maintaining physiological functions, and improper folding can lead to the formation of toxic aggregates such as amyloids, ...
