A new protein sequencing method, which uses a biological motor to pull a protein through a tiny nanopore, could revolutionise protein analysis. The researchers at the University...
Centuries ago, astronomers observed a dark oval — nicknamed the Permanent Spot — on Jupiter. It was located at the same latitude, or distance from Jupiter’s equator,...
Population structure can be inferred from Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) data and focuses on the genetic variation within and between populations by investigating the...
Yellowstone National Park is known for its bubbling hot springs and steaming geysers. These hydrothermal wonders are powered by a massive cauldron of partly...
A team in France has detected hydrogen dimers – one of the simplest molecular complexes – at room temperature for the first time.1
Researchers first...
Interactions between neighbouring peptide bonds could explain how the collagen in dinosaur bones remains intact for hundreds of millions of years.
Bone collagen is commonly...
We have several goals in dissecting a protein’s genetic architecture. First, we would like to know how sequence determines function across the space of...
