ETH Researchers Visualize the Binding of Proteins to the Nuclear Surface
Not only the genetic information of individual cells, but also that of the entire organism is stored within the cell nucleus. Each cell of a multicellular organism, e.g. man, contains the identical DNA sequences. The communication between the cell nucleus and the remainder of the cell is thus... view more (2003-01-15)

Damage from oxygen may be one cause of Parkinson's disease
Research by neuroscientists at the University of Virginia Health System shows that oxygen free radicals are damaging proteins in mitochondria, the tiny cellular 'batteries' of brain cells.   view more (2006-05-17)

High-performance computing may improve combustion efficiency
Rising oil prices have revved momentum to develop more efficient combustion systems. But instrumental to this goal is a need to achieve greater understanding of the complex chemical reactions involved in combustion processes.   view more (2005-08-30)

Targeting the dosage compensation complex
Three independent research papers in the April 1 issue of G&D detail the chromosome-wide binding of the Drosophila dosage compensation complex (DCC) to the single male X chromosome, shedding new light on the mechanism of DCC targeting.   view more (2006-03-17)

Oxygen triggered the evolution of complex life forms
Oxygen played a key role in the evolution of complex organisms, according to new research published in BMC Evolutionary Biology. The study shows that the complexity of life forms increased earlier than was thought, and in parallel with the availability of oxygen as an energy source. In the largest... view more (2004-01-22)

Delft Architectural Engineer Combines Economics and Environment: Building with Double Profit
Researcher Tim de Jonge, of TU Delft, has developed a model to calculate the environmental impact of all kinds of building projects easily and accurately. The model can show whether or not a design change, aimed at the reduction of the environmental impact of the design, is worthwhile. Tim de Jonge... view more (2005-02-24)

K-State professor developing new strategies for delivery of drugs to fight, treat tuberculosis
It has been identified by the World Health Organization as the most dangerous infectious disease, causing more deaths - more than 2 million a year - than any other single infection. "It" is Mycobacterium tuberculosis.   view more (2005-08-31)

Novel laboratory model reveals clues to how blood starts clotting
Researchers at the University of Chicago have crafted a simple model for predicting when and where hemostasis - the technical term for blood clotting - will occur.   view more (2006-10-27)

Leicester scientists seek to disarm TB's 'molecular weapon'
Scientists at the University of Leicester are claiming a new advance in their fight against the resurgence of TB in Britain.   view more (2008-03-06)

Certain diseases, birth defects may be linked to failure of protein recycling system
A group of signaling proteins known as Wnt - which help build the human body's skin, bone, muscle and other tissues - depend on a complex delivery and recycling system to ensure their transport to tissue-building cell sites, according to a study at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center.   view more (2007-12-21)

Genetically engineered blood protein can be used to split water into oxygen and hydrogen
Scientists have combined two molecules that occur naturally in blood to engineer a molecular complex that uses solar energy to split water into hydrogen and oxygen.   view more (2006-12-01)

Complex questions asked by defense lawyers linked to convictions in child abuse trials
Defendants in child abuse cases are more likely to be convicted if their defense lawyer uses complicated language when interrogating young victims according to new research out of the University of Toronto and the University of Southern California.   view more (2008-07-21)

Is there anybody out there?
Is there anybody out there? Probably not, according to a scientist from the University of East Anglia. A mathematical model produced by Prof Andrew Watson suggests that the odds of finding new life on other Earth-like planets are low, given the time it has taken for beings such as humans to evolve... view more (2008-04-17)

Chemistry turns killer gas into potential cure
Despite its deadly reputation, the gas carbon monoxide (CO) could actually save lives and boost health in future as a result of leading-edge UK research.   view more (2007-10-16)

Tiny fuel cell might replace batteries in laptop computers, portable electronics
If you're frustrated by frequently losing battery power in your laptop computer, digital camera or portable music player, then take heart: A better source of "juice" is in the works.   view more (2006-09-13)

The clustering of Hox genes, involved in the determination of body segments, is not necessary for their proper function
The Hox genes (also known as homeotic genes) play a crucial role in the development of animals, being involved in the determination of segment identity along the body axis. These genes were discovered in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster 90 years ago and have been found later in all animals,... view more (2005-05-02)

How actin networks are actin'
Dynamic networks of growing actin filaments are critical for many cellular processes, including cell migration, intracellular transport, and the recovery of proteins from the cell surface.   view more (2008-01-03)

In the loop: Scientists reveal how signals travel through rat's whiskers
Like blind peoples' fingers, rats use their whiskers to engage in active sensing - a combination of movement and touch - when trying to figure out the location and identity of a certain object.   view more (2006-05-17)

UMaine teams with fishermen to study affects of trawling on seafloor ecology
Working in cooperation with Maine trawler captain Cameron McLellan and the Gulf of Maine Research Institute, UMaine graduate student Emily Knight and UMaine Marine Science professor Les Watling recently completed a long-term study that examines the effects of groundfish trawling on the complex... view more (2006-02-08)

September Issue Tip-Sheet
An e-fab way for making the micro world A new manufacturing technique that has produced what researchers believe is the world's narrowest chain could open a whole world of new micro-mechanical devices. The technique, known as EFAB (electrochemical fabrication), is much faster and quicker than other... view more (1999-08-31)

Researchers develop guidelines to establish identity of genes responsible for common, complex diseases
Scientists from Imperial College London, the Medical Research Council, Case Western Reserve University, USA and the Hammersmith Hospital have developed guidelines which scientists can use as a benchmark for proof of identification of the multiple genes responsible for common, complex diseases.... view more (2002-12-18)

Mathematician uses topology to study abstract spaces, solve problems
Studying complex systems, such as the movement of robots on a factory floor, the motion of air over a wing, or the effectiveness of a security network, can present huge challenges. Mathematician Robert Ghrist at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is developing advanced mathematical... view more (2006-08-16)

Instruction Manuals: First Text then Pictures
Delft research on efficiency of text, images and animations in instruction manuals Instruction Manuals: First Text then Pictures In instruction manuals, the use of text is most efficient for short-term learning and images are most efficient for the longer term. This is one of the conclusions from... view more (2002-06-11)

NYU, Salk Institute neuroscientists offer new path for measuring visual responses to complex images
Neuroscientists at New York University and the Salk Institute have developed a new technique for measuring visual responses to complex images.
