When bacteria cells replicate, they do so a little differently than human cells do. They don't undergo mitosis, a splitting ...
To better understand BKPyV replication and ways to prevent it, researchers in the UAB Department of Microbiology have published a single-cell analysis of BKPyV infection in primary kidney cells. Their ...
Researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have built a computer simulation that tracks the entire life cycle ...
A remarkably small bacterium containing fewer than 500 genes serves as the basis for one of the most detailed digital life ...
R-loops are structures that form when a strand of RNA (red) forms a stable structure with double-stranded DNA, causing one strand of the DNA to form a loop. R-loops are associated with gene ...
A simulated cell in the early stages of division. Left half shows membrane (green cubes), and ribosomes (yellow/purple) ...
Google DeepMind has expanded its AlphaFold AI system to not only predict the structure of proteins, but also to model how proteins interact with other cell structures, including DNA, RNA, and small ...
The startup is developing AI foundation models trained on DNA rather than text or code, applying deep learning techniques to ...
BK polyomavirus, or BKPyV, is a major cause of kidney transplant failure. There are no effective drugs to treat BKPyV. Research reveals new aspects of BKPyV replication, offering possible drug targets ...
