How do blood vessels stay strong, flexible, and responsive to the body's changing need for oxygen and nutrients? The answer lies not only in biology—but also in physics. Researchers at Åbo Akademi ...
A new LMU study shows how proteins function reliably even without a stable 3D structure – and the crucial importance not only of short sequence motifs, but also of the chemical characteristics.
From the molecules that drive fundamental cellular processes to the signals that influence disease, the field of molecular biology continues to reshape how scientists understand life. Read the top ...
A new LMU study shows how proteins function reliably even without a stable 3D structure—and the crucial importance not only of short sequence motifs, but also of chemical characteristics. Many ...
Researchers have revealed how bacteria precisely control the genes that trigger cell division. The study shows that the MraZ protein, which normally forms a donut-shaped structure, must bend and ...
An international team of scientists has unveiled the most comprehensive model yet that explains how cells control the flow of materials in and out of their nuclei—solving one of biology's oldest ...
Molecular biology studies how proteins, sugars, fats, nucleic acids and other molecules form the basis of life. Examining the biochemistry of these molecules, from DNA synthesis to enzyme function, ...
When Dr. Ibiagbani “Ibi” Max‑Harry was eight, she first understood that the world could be larger than the classroom she knew ...
Ready to lead the next wave of biological and medical research? You’re in the right place! UW’s Ph.D. and master’s in molecular biology are research-intensive programs that expose students to ...
