How the 100th protein structure solved at Diamond impacts our understanding of how insects smell
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 development and refinement of new eco-friendly pest control methods for worldwide agriculture. view more (2009-09-30)
Scientists capture the speediest ever motion in a molecule
The fastest ever observations of protons moving within a molecule open a new window on fundamental processes in chemistry and biology, researchers report today in the journal Science. view more (2006-03-03)
The Biochemist August 2002 issue; THEME: Days of our lives — Careers special
The field of biochemistry is becoming ever broader — encompassing everything from structural biology through genetic engineering to molecular cell biology. In her introduction to the issue, Deborah Smith (Director of Postgraduate Studies, Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine, London, UK) lists her ingredients for making a... view more...

Materials Today (February issue) Molecular electronics: What is it? How will it be applied in the future?
Introducing molecular electronics "In the natural world, molecules are used for many purposes. Using molecule-based materials for electronics, sensing, and optoelectronics is a new endeavor, called molecular electronics, and the subject both of riveting new research, and substantial popular press interest," says Mark Ratner. As one of... view more... (2002-02-06)
Caltech scientists help launch the first standard graphical notation for biology
Researchers at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and their colleagues in 30 laboratories worldwide have released a new set of standards for graphically representing biological information-the biology equivalent of the circuit diagram in electronics. view more (2009-08-12)
'Nurse cells' make life and death decisions for infection-fighting cells
"Nurse cells" play an important role in deciding which developing infection-fighting cells, called T cells, live and which die, according to research funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and reported in the June issue of the journal Experimental Biology and Medicine. view more (2007-05-31)
Structural mechanism of the E. coli drug efflux pump AcrB
In a new study published online in the open access journal PLoS Biology, Gaby Sennhauser, Marcus Gruetter, and colleagues use structural biology techniques to probe the molecular mechanisms of the major drug efflux pump in E. coli AcrB. view more (2006-12-27)
Pitt professor contends biological underpinnings
Jeffrey H. Schwartz, University of Pittsburgh professor of anthropology in the School of Arts and Sciences, is working to debunk a major tenet of Darwinian evolution. view more (2007-02-12)
Researchers identify molecular basis of inflammatory bowel disease
Inflammatory bowel diseases, such as Crohn's disease and Ulcerative Colitis, severely impair the lives of more than four million people worldwide. The development of effective therapies against these diseases requires an understanding of their underlying molecular mechanisms. Researchers from the Universities of Cologne and Mainz in Germany, the... view more... (2007-03-15)
How Candida albicans transforms from its normally benign form into life-threatening form
Researchers at the Agency for Science, Technology and Research's (A*STAR) Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology (IMCB) have discovered new molecular mechanisms that provide a more detailed understanding of how the normally benign Dr. Jekyll-like fungus known as Candida albicans transforms into a serious and often life-threatening Mr. Hyde-like... view more...

Scientists fix bugs in our understanding of evolution
What makes a human different from a chimp? Researchers from the European Molecular Biology Laboratory's European Bioinformatics Institute [EMBL-EBI] have come one important step closer to answering such evolutionary questions correctly. view more (2008-06-20)
Newly Discovered Mechanism in Cell Division has Implications for Understanding Aberrant Chromosome's Role in Cancer, According to Penn Study
"A biologist, a physicist, and a nanotechnologist walk into a ..." sounds like the start of a joke. Instead, it was the start of a collaboration that has helped to decipher a critical, but so far largely unstudied, phase of how cells divide. view more (2009-08-18)
Gold for the jubilee year
The Queen's Golden Jubilee year has been suitably marked by two British students, who were awarded gold medals at the International Biology Olympiad, held in Latvia. view more (2002-07-16)
EMBO supports restart of six female scientists at the bench
The first six fellows to benefit from the European Molecular Biology Organization's (EMBO) new restart fellowship scheme are preparing to start work in their laboratories. The selected researchers come from Germany, Hungary, the UK and Italy. They will restart their research careers on full-time EMBO fellowships that cover a two-year period.... view more...

Brains of Britain
Two young people are set to represent Britain in, not one school science Olympiad, but two! This is equivalent to an international athlete running in the hundred metres and then throwing the javelin. Erica Thompson, from the Douglas Academy in Glasgow and David Wyatt from Winchester College are representing their country at the International... view more... (2002-05-08)
UCLA researchers identify leukemia stem cells
Stem cell researchers at UCLA have identified a type of leukemia stem cell and uncovered the molecular and genetic mechanisms that cause a normal blood stem cells to become cancerous. view more (2008-05-27)
Systems biology approach identifies nutrient regulation of biological clock in plants
Using a systems biological analysis of genome-scale data from the model plant Arabidopsis, an international team of researchers identified that the master gene controlling the biological clock is sensitive to nutrient status. view more (2008-03-17)
Purifying parasites with light
Researchers have developed a clever method to purify parasitic organisms from their host cells, which will allow for more detailed proteomic studies and a deeper insight into the biology of organisms that cause millions of cases of disease each year. view more (2008-09-15)
Ammonia-loving archaea win landslide majority
A genetic analysis of soil samples indicates that a group of microorganisms called crenarchaeota are the Earth's most abundant land-based creatures that oxidize ammonia. view more (2006-08-17)
Scientists learn what's 'up' with a class of retinal cells in mice
Harvard University researchers have discovered a new type of retinal cell that plays an exclusive and unusual role in mice: detecting upward motion. The cells reflect their function in the physical arrangement of their dendrites, branch-like structures on neuronal cells that form a communicative network with other dendrites and neurons in the... view more...
