From anti-counterfeiting inks to bioimaging agents, phosphorescent materials that glow after light exposure are critical for ...

An international research team has successfully achieved single-molecule spectroscopic observation of hydrogen (H2) and ...

Researchers have observed hydrogen and deuterium molecules in tiny spaces called picocavities using advanced spectroscopy. This study reveals unique differences between the molecules due to quantum ...

In Biology 101, we learn that RNA is a single, ribbon-like strand of base pairs that is copied from our DNA and then read ...

a sugar molecule, and a phosphate group. Levene made his initial proposal in 1919, discrediting other suggestions that had been put forth about the structure of nucleic acids. In Levene's own ...

A significant advancement in molecular engineering has produced a large, hollow spherical shell nanostructure through the self-assembly of peptides and metal ions, report researchers from Japan. This ...

The models in nature, e.g. proteins, have an exactly defined structure. The new, light-induced synthesis method allows for customized molecule design, with the building blocks being arranged at ...

They were hardly modest, these two brash young scientists who in 1953 declared to patrons of the Eagle Pub in Cambridge, England, that they had "found the secret of life." But James Watson and ...

I was excited, because being able to discern the three-dimensional structure of macromolecules just by shining X-rays on them seemed like magic to me. And thanks to a lackluster professor ...

The core staff will assist with handling of macromolecules for structure analysis. Consultation: Advising investigators how to take advantage of this technology and pursue high-resolution structural ...

discovered a new molecule. The new molecular structure is, in the nomenclature of researchers, a “sandwich.” In this formation, a berkelium atom, serving as the filling, lays in between two 8- ...
