Researchers have uncovered a new way to attack lymphoma by targeting a non-catalytic region of a key regulatory enzyme, rather than its traditional active site. Researchers at VCU Massey Comprehensive ...

Nucleotide synthesis—the production of the basic components of DNA and RNA—is essential for cell growth and division. In most ...

After a long search, RIKEN researchers have identified an enzyme crucial for keeping lipid-linked sugar chains in check in yeast cells. This finding, published in the Journal of Cell Biology, reveals ...

Melatonin and zinc oxide nanoparticles may protect male reproductive health during chemotherapy, study suggests.

For much of nutrition science history, trace minerals were discussed almost exclusively in the context of deficiency diseases. Iodine prevented goiter, iron prevented anemia, and zinc supported growth ...

Scientists identify a neuronal enzyme linked to amyloid plaque formation, opening new possibilities for targeted Alzheimer’s disease treatment.

Researchers introduced a yeast enzyme, ScURA, into human cells, enabling nucleotide synthesis independent of mitochondrial ...

Scientists have identified a key biological mechanism that enables sperm to rapidly increase their energy just before ...

Protein-Protein Interactions (PPIs) are critical for biological systems to function properly. Strong interactions maintain structural integrity and function, whereas weaker interactions enable ...

Mitochondrial diseases are severe, often untreatable, and they leave human cells unable to grow normally without outside help. A new study published in Nature Metabolism now shows that a single gene ...

A collection of microbial specimens gathered from a cave located in Romania has displayed a variety of similarities to bacteria that are currently being studied in neurobiology. This research ...

Sustained acoustic medicine (sam®) helps players recover more quickly from workouts and injuries, such as the UCL tears, hamstring pulls, and oblique strains that are becoming more common in baseball.
