MSK researchers shed new light on G-quadruplexes, a type of secondary DNA structure that has attracted attention as a ...

The molecular structure of the motor component that powers the gliding apparatus of Mycoplasma mobile, one of the few mycoplasma bacteria that can move, has been revealed using cryo-electron ...

Using a powerful microscopy technique, a team led by researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center has gained insights into ...

A new Yale study aims to settle a longstanding question about photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert sunlight ...

Dr. Hauke Hillen was able to visualize the three-dimensional structure of the viral "copying machine". These findings could contribute to the future development of antiviral drugs for the treatment of ...

For the first time in the world, the molecular structure of the motor component that powers the gliding apparatus of ...

Now, a cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure of a stalled PAR6–aPKC–LGL complex addresses this conundrum. Peptide synthesis on the ribosome can be blocked by certain peptide motifs.

The replication of the Nipah virus's genetic material in infected cells has been demonstrated for the first time by ...

Cryoelectron microscopy is a method for imaging frozen-hydrated specimens at cryogenic temperatures by electron microscopy. Specimens remain in their native state without the need for dyes or ...
