For years, biomolecular condensates were thought to be simple, liquid-like droplets with little internal organization. New ...

An extensive computational study by researchers from Finland's University of Jyväskylä predicts that gold nanoclusters could selectively recognize chiral biomolecules. This property may help in ...

Called a landmark discovery, scientists create a molecule with an unprecedented electronic pattern that revolutionizes ...

Researchers at the University of California, Irvine, Israel's Tel Aviv University and other institutions have developed a ...

Most solid materials we rely on, from steel, to plastics and ceramics, are designed to have specific properties. Whether a ...

Chemists have developed a light-driven method for producing a rare and highly strained molecular structure known as “housane.” Designing a new drug often starts with a basic but difficult task: making ...

Researchers have discovered the origins of the protein structures responsible for metabolism: simple molecules that powered early life on Earth and serve as chemical signals that NASA could use to ...

What if diagnosing pneumonia were as simple? A breath test uses nanoparticles and a chip-scale sensor to detect disease biomarkers.

Michael Martynowycz, PhD, assistant professor of structural biology at the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, recently described a new technique for solving protein structures in a rec ...

A new study by NYU chemists finds that DNA tiles can assemble into 3D structures without the sticky cohesion of hydrogen bonding. This finding, published in Nature Communications, turns a fundamental ...

After false starts and incremental gains, scientists crack the problem that made breathing impossible. Will answers come fast ...

Researchers have developed a practical and low cost method to transform agricultural waste into high quality biochar, ...
