Laser diodes are semiconductors that generate light and amplify it using repeated reflection or "optical feedback." Once the ...

Porous organic crystals with superior properties as CO2 adsorbents were created by researchers at Institute of Science Tokyo.

Prof. Dan Shechtman of the Technion–Israel Institute of Technology made the discovery that would later earn him the 2011 ...

Human genes that encode proteins often contain non-coding segments known as introns. Removing introns is crucial for the proper expression of genetic information. Understanding how our cells ...

Due to proteostasis stress induced by aging or disease, misfolded proteins can form toxic intermediate species of aggregates and eventually mature into less toxic inclusion bodies (IBs). Here, using a ...

In human cells, only a small proportion of the information written in genes is used to produce proteins. How does the cell ...

Two-dimensional materials are substances with a thickness of a few nanometres or less. Electrons in these materials are free to move in the two-dimensional plane, but their restricted motion in ...

Their cell structure is simpler than the cells of ... plasmids are found in a few simple eukaryotic organisms. Prokaryotic cell DNA is a single molecule, found free in the cytoplasm; additional ...

Feb. 4, 2025 — Research has shown that a potential new targeted therapy for childhood brain cancer is effective in infiltrating and killing tumor cells in preclinical models tested in mice. The ...

This is called photosynthesis. The basic structure of a plant cell is shown below. Photosynthesis relies on many structures in the cell all working together, each playing its role. The diagram ...

Oxide-ion conductors are important energy materials. Here, the authors found a tellurite-based oxygen ion conductor highlighting the interplay of secondary bond interactions and Grotthuss-like ...
