During DNA replication, the classic double helix can temporarily rearrange into an alternative structure known as a DNA three-way junction (3WJ). These configurations form a well-defined central ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have discovered a previously unknown molecule that may explain why people with type 2 diabetes often suffer from muscle weakness and muscle loss - a condition ...

What is PAF? PAF (platelet-activating factor) is a bioactive lipid molecule produced by various cells in the body, including immune cells, during inflammatory responses.

An interaction between two proteins points to a molecular basis for memory. But how do memories last when the molecules that form them turn over within days, weeks, or months?

Scientists have developed a new molecule that can deliver powerful immune-activating treatment directly to cancer cells, marking an important advancement in cancer therapy. Traditionally, one ...

Capital Medical University, in collaboration with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, reports that betaine, a molecule produced in the kidney and enhanced through sustained exercise, operates as a ...

The discovery itself is simple and fundamental, but the applications stretch far and wide into astrophysics and quantum technology, the researchers say.

Designed to tackle high-impact, hard-to-treat conditions such as neurodegenerative diseases and metastatic cancers, InFocus has built a proprietary RNA-targeted small molecule drug generation ...

Researchers have developed a blood test that detects Alzheimer's biomarkers at single-molecule levels, enabling earlier, non-invasive diagnosis using extracellular vesicles.

Discover how a new magnetic molecule can store 3TB per cm², transforming data storage with high density and stability at higher temperatures.

Single-molecule magnet could lead to stamp-sized hard drives capable of storing 100 times more data by Australian National University ...
