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

A new part of an ocean plant cell has been discovered that might revolutionize farming one day. The structure can take ...

To uncover what drives sexual behavior in animals, researchers studied the brain activity of male mice throughout the series of actions involved in sex leading up to ejaculation. Their results ...

can also be located in the cell nucleus, where the genetic material resides. Remarkably, nuclear Talin-1 was shown to influence the expression of genes that regulate cell-to-cell connections.

Purdue University scientists have discovered a key mechanism that regulates how plants develop chloroplasts, essential ...

Researchers have used genetic tools to investigate how specific nerve cells in the brain respond after a spinal cord injury.

Wellen wondered whether the nucleus had its own unique metabolism and could therefore be considered a “metabolic compartment.” Working with Nate Snyder, a biochemist at the Lewis Katz School of ...

Researchers from Northwestern University have stumbled upon a previously unobserved function of a protein found in the cell ...

One of the key challenges of the modern genomics era is studying the thousands of genes in a single human cell at scale. To ...

Ten years of substantial work by Université de Montréal immunologist Nathalie Labrecque's team at the Montreal Clinical ...

Circadian rhythms are endogenous time-keeping mechanisms that regulate physiological processes in response to external ...
