The first, Karmaka songkhlaensis, were 2-3 millimeters in size, and named after the location in which they were found. They were in abundance in the upper part…
Proteins are made from genetic material called ribonucleic acid, or RNA. Each piece of RNA is made up of alternating stretches of useful and useless genetic…
Done in mouse models, the study serves as first proof-of-principle that blood stem cells, which make every cell type found in blood, can be genetically altered…
The future brightened for organic chemistry when researchers at Rice University found a highly controllable way to attach organic molecules to pristine…
The findings were published in the Dec. 1, 2011, issue of the Journal of Infectious Diseases. Herpes simplex labialis (HSL) is an infection caused by herpes…
In a scientific first that potentially could shed new light on how signals travel in the brain, how learning alters neural pathways, and might lead to speedier…

Double-stranded DNA must disentangle itself into single strands during replication or repair to allow functional molecules to bind and perform their various…
Researchers from the NYU Cancer Institute, an NCI-designated cancer center at NYU Langone Medical Center, have discovered a new potential therapeutic target…
Scientists at Weill Cornell Medical College used genetic methods to successfully repair cleft lips in mice embryos specially engineered for the study of cleft…
The compound — BU-005 — blocks pumps that a bacterium employs to expel an antibacterial agent called chloramphenicol. The team used a new and highly efficient…
Bacteria and fungi are remarkably mobile. Now researchers at Tel Aviv University have discovered that the two organisms enjoy a mutually beneficial…
Atrazine is the second-most widely used herbicide in the U.S. More than 75 million pounds of it are applied to corn and other crops, and it is the most…
