Scientists have found that an increase in water salinity in the cells of the marine diatom Nitzschia weakens the connections between the components of the photosynthetic apparatus and disrupts the ...

This valuable study reports on the critical role of ANKRD5 (ANKEF1) in sperm motility and male fertility. However, the supporting data remain incomplete. This work will be of interest to biomedical ...

Electron microscopy images reveal crucial structures and mechanisms within the molecular machinery that certain bacteria use ...

Biological motors, which aid microorganism movement in fluids, are composed of two components -- the rotor and stators. Despite much research, the exact molecular mechanism underlying stator function ...

The use of AI to create bogus scientific papers is becoming an increasingly serious problem, researchers say, threatening ...
