Electron microscopy uses a beam of electrons to illuminate ... disease — we visualized the context-dependent action of the ribosome-targeting antibiotic chloramphenicol simultaneously at atomic ...

Researchers at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa have discovered that a virus, FloV-SA2, encodes one of the proteins needed ...

Use precise geolocation data and actively scan device characteristics for identification. This is done to store and access ...

“We wanted to find out how the coupling of RNAP and the ribosome is established in the first place,” Weixlbaumer said. “Using purified components, we reassembled the complex—10-billionth of a meter in ...

Bacteria modify their ribosomes when exposed to widely used antibiotics, according to research published today in Nature Communications. The subtle changes might be enough to alter the binding ...

"Understanding how the ribosome captures or 'recruits' the ... We saw them in action using cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and interpreted what they were doing. We then needed to see if the ...

This article from Thermo Scientific Data Visualization Solutions explains how Amira Software was able to solve a 60-year ...

Within a cell, DNA carries the genetic code for building proteins. To build proteins, the cell makes a copy of DNA, called ...

EMBO Press congratulates Jacques Dubochet, Joachim Frank and Richard Henderson on receiving the Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2017 for their work in developing cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM ... EM to ...

The study is published in the journal ACS Applied Nano Materials. Conventional electron microscopy often produces noisy images that obscure rubber's internal contours. The proposed method ...

An international research collaboration has shed new light on the molecular basis of gene expression, the fundamental biological process that underpins how all organisms use their genetic information.
