In biology textbooks and beyond, the human genome and DNA therein typically are taught in only one dimension. While it can be ...

Insulin-producing human pancreas cells can be manufactured with 3D printers, researchers reported at the International Transplant Congress underway in London.

Leafcutter ants live in highly organized colonies where every ant has a job, and now researchers can flip those jobs like a switch. By manipulating just two neuropeptides, scientists can turn ...

Integration of this experimental data with all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations allowed us to identify and modulate the molecular interactions governing key conformational dynamics to ...
