Engineers have made bacteria to produce hyperspectral signals that can be detected as far as 90 meters away. Their work could lead to the development of bacterial sensors for agricultural and other ...

It’s a common refrain on social media. We fact-checked this and five other big protein claims circulating online.

Cottage cheese, chicken breast, navy beans, and salmon are examples of foods that contain as much protein, or more, than ...

This useful study provides incomplete evidence that TANGO2 homologs, including HRG-9 and HRG-10, are not heme chaperones but play a role in cellular bioenergetics and oxidative stress homeostasis.

Proteins are the building blocks of life. They consist of folded peptide chains, which in turn are made up of a series of ...

A team of researchers has uncovered a previously unrecognized role of mitochondrial protein synthesis in the maintenance of intracellular iron distribution. Disruption of this process was found to ...

Scientists have attempted to map the human cell since the first microscope was invented more than 400 years ago. But many ...

Researchers suggest the bacteria could be designed to detect pollution or nutrients, acting as sensors to help farmers ...

Mitochondrial diseases, arising from mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), are a diverse group of disorders that lead to ...

Dr. Rocco is careful to add a few caveats. For example, any purported detoxification benefits are null since the liver and kidneys can adequately handle detox when we support them with a healthy ...

Medically reviewed by Anju Goel, MD Iron is an essential trace mineral in foods like lean meats, poultry, nuts, seeds, and ...

Peripheral membrane proteins, for example some signalling proteins, are tethered by an anchor, via a fatty acid, prenyl group, glycophosphatidylinositol (GPI) or a hydrophobic protein patch.
