Researchers at the Department of Cell and Molecular Biology, Karolinska Institutet have captured the first detailed molecular ...

Once thought of as having one simple job within cells, researchers continue to learn more about the importance of organelles called lysosomes. An organelle is a small structure in a cell that is ...

Human stem cells can differentiate into any human cell. But the process of dedifferentiation, essentially differentiation in reverse, is implicated in several diseases. Now researchers have uncovered ...

Enzymes that cut DNA at specific sites are called endonucleases; these enzymes play many roles in genomic replication, fidelity, and defense. The initial discovery of restriction endonucleases in the ...

Researchers have made a major breakthrough earlier this year in the field of evolutionary conservation of molecular dynamics in enzymes. Their work points to potential applications in health, ...

Photodynamic therapy (PDT), characterized by its non-invasive nature and precise spatiotemporal selectivity, has garnered considerable attention for its applications in tumor and anti-infection ...

An international research team has published a study in the journal The FEBS Journal that significantly advances the knowledge of a rare hereditary metabolic disease: classical homocystinuria. The ...

Israeli and European scientists have discovered a new molecular mechanism linking aging and neurodegenerative diseases to ...

Researchers have captured real-time "molecular movies" showing how an enzyme changes shape during catalysis. The study was ...
