Drought resistance explained
Much as adrenaline coursing through our veins drives our body’s reactions to stress, the plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) is behind plants’ responses to stressful situations such as drought, but how ...

New research announced today, Wednesday 30th September, by a team of leading scientists working with the UK's national Synchrotron, Diamond Light Source, could have a significant impact on the de...
Life Sciences | Read moreRatchet-like genetic mutations make evolution irreversible
A University of Oregon research team has found that evolution can never go backwards, because the paths to the genes once present in our ancestors are forever blocked. The findings -- the result of th...
Life Sciences | Read moreHigh-res view of zinc transport protein
How much difference can a tenth of a nanometer make? When it comes to figuring out how proteins work, an improvement in resolution of that miniscule amount can mean the difference between seeing where...

In June 2008, University of Oregon chemist Shih-Yuan Liu reported in the Journal of the American Chemical Society his lab's synthesis of boron-nitrogen compounds with electronic and structural si...
Life Sciences | Read moreChemists reach from the molecular to the real world with creation of 3-D DNA crystals
The work, reported in the latest issue of the journal Nature, also has a range of potential industrial and pharmaceutical applications, such as the creation of nanoelectronic components and the organi...
Life Sciences | Read moreFine-tuning an anti-cancer drug
Cancer remains a deadly threat despite the best efforts of science. New hopes were raised a few years ago with the discovery that the uncontrolled growth of cancer cells could be thwarted by blocking ...
Life Sciences | Read moreRaising the alarm when DNA goes bad
Our genome is constantly under attack from things like UV light and toxins, which can damage or even break DNA strands and ultimately lead to cancer and other diseases.Scientists have known fo...
Life Sciences | Read moreJoint research into an enzyme that causes genetic diseases
Pyruvate carboxylase is a metabolic enzyme that plays a fundamental role in the metabolism of fatty acids (the components of fats) and sugars. When its function is not adequately performed (for exampl...
Life Sciences | Read moreProtein structures revealed at record pace
The high-throughput protein pipeline could allow scientists to expedite the development of biofuels, decipher how extremophiles thrive in conditions that kill most organisms, and better understand how...
Life Sciences | Read moreDiscovery of the cell's water gate may lead to new cancer drugs
The discovery, which will be published in the journal PLoS Biology, raises hopes of developing a drug that inhibits the spread and growth of tumours.All living organisms must be able to regula...
Life Sciences | Read moreNew study reveals structure of the HIV protein shell
Previously, scientists had known that the genetic material within HIV is enclosed within a shell called the capsid, which is formed by a honeycomb arrangement of about 250 hexagonal protein building b...
Life Sciences | Read moreResearch identifies 3-D structure of key nuclear pore building block
The genome of complex organisms is stashed away inside each cell's nucleus, a little like a sovereign shielded from the threatening world outside. The genome cannot govern from its protective cha...
Physics and Astronomy | Read more"Disordered" Amino Acids May Really Be There to Provide Wiggle Room for Signaling Protein
Sections of proteins previously thought to be disordered may in fact have an unexpected biological role — providing certain proteins room to move — according to a study published by researchers at Fox...
Life Sciences | Read moreMatrix protein key to fighting viruses
Team members, Dr John Sanderson and Dr Paul Yeo from Durham University have helped produce the first ever, high-resolution, full-length structure of a protein from an enveloped virus called the '...
