Researchers used genome sequencing and machine learning to trace the top food sources behind Salmonella infections in the US. Chicken and vegetables emerged as the primary culprits, together ...

Biological cells often possess thin, hair-like protrusions on their surface known as cilia, which serve various functions ranging from movement to sensing environmental signals. Researchers from ...

Who were our earliest ancestors? The answer could lie in a special group of single-celled organisms with a cytoskeleton similar to that of complex organisms, such as animals and plants.

In a groundbreaking study on the synthesis of cellulose—a major constituent of all plant cell walls—a team of Rutgers University-New Brunswick researchers have captured images of the microscopic ...

Ten years ago, nobody knew that Asgard archaea even existed. In 2015, however, researchers examining deep-sea sediments ...

Death is inevitable for almost all organisms, but avoiding a sticky end is easier for some that happen to be insanely hard to kill.

Fatty acid biosynthesis is an energy-intensive biosynthetic pathway, and the production of the building blocks for membrane phospholipids is precisely regulated to match the rate of cell division.

The first, an enzymatic biofuel cell (EBFC), provides power for the ... coli from other bacteria like Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella. It was also found to remain functional over multiple ...

specific regions of DNA that are activated in cancer cells and contribute to the cancer progression, and also interacts with CTCF, a known tumor-suppressor protein that regulates the structure of ...
