The exotic animal’s genome could point to possible treatment options for COVID-19 in humans. Similar to how a smoke detector sounds off an alarm, certain…
From left, Graduate Student Gustaf E. Degen, Research Technician Dawn Worrall, and Senior Lecturer Elizabete Carmo-Silva from Lancaster University discovered that swapping just one amino…
Most newly discharged patients who recently recovered from COVID-19 produce virus-specific antibodies and T cells, suggests a study published on May 3rd in the journal…
(A) Schematic representation of SARS-CoV-2, the viral spike protein and the cleavage sites for furin (green, S1/S2 position; the cleavage sequence is shown below the…

Discovery draws surprising parallels between low-level organisms and sophisticated neurons; lays the groundwork for memory-capable biological systems. Biologists studying collectives of bacteria, or “biofilms,” have…
Phylogenetic tree diagrams form the basis of understanding microbial evolution. Long branches between the two domains in some trees may reflect a period of very…
This scanning electron microscope image shows SARS-CoV-2 (orange)—also known as 2019-nCoV, the virus that causes COVID-19—isolated from a patient in the U.S., emerging from the…
Diving in the Gulf of Mexico: With the submersible ALVIN, the researchers from Bremen were able to reach the seafloor. There they used ALVIN’s grab…
Tubulin traps important signaling molecules, leads to reduced brain messaging. Scientists have zeroed in on a structural protein as a new target for the diagnosis…
Researchers at the RIKEN Center for Biosystems Dynamics Research (BDR) in Japan have identified a new mechanism that helps animals to develop with precise and…
The genetic quest to understand COVID-19 will help us prevent other diseases. How the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19 made the leap from animals to…

University of California, Berkeley, researchers have created a new technique that utilizes photolithography and programmable DNA to rapidly “print” two-dimensional arrays of cells and proteins…
Immune cells by fluorescence microscopy: Blood stem cells remember a previous attack and produce more immune cells like these macrophages to fight a new infection.…
Immediately after a sperm fertilizes an egg, the SPRK1 enzyme leads the first step in untangling a sperm’s genome, kicking out special packing proteins called…
Stanford researchers used advanced microscopy and mathematical modeling to discover a pattern that governs the growth of neurons in the flatworm brain, shown here. Using…
