These factors cooperatively bind a composite DNA site and activate expression of the IFN‐β gene. The 3.0 Å crystal structure of the DNA‐binding domains of ATF‐2/c‐Jun and two IRF‐3 molecules in a ...

Meet “Zangenite,” a hollow crystal structure named in honor of the NYU graduate student who discovered it. Crystals, whether ...

Abstract: In this paper, we present an overview of milestone achievements in the research and development of photonic crystal structures and their perspective applications. We highlight challenges in ...

Scientists studying a promising quantum material have stumbled upon a surprise: within its crystal structure, the material naturally forms one of the world's thinnest semiconductor junctions—a ...

This helps us focus on sugar-rich foods for energy, and drives a need for a lot of sweets to satisfy our sweet tooth. Determining the structure of the human sweet receptor is key to comprehending ...

A minor change was observed in eEF1A for the side chain of Lys 154, which reorients itself in response to the presence of the sugar moiety ... be unfavorable. The structure of eEF1A–eEF1Bα ...

The juice is then boiled to remove impurities and concentrate the sugar. Next, the juice is crystallized, and the crystals are separated from the liquid through a centrifuge.The sugar crystals ...

From the delicate patterns of snowflakes to the robust structure of diamonds, crystals are all around us. For a long time, scientists believed their growth followed a predictable path. But now ...
