Researchers discover a gene linked to touch in sea anemones as well as hearing in humans

An international team of investigators, including several researchers in biological sciences from the U of A, have published a paper that reports the discovery of a developmental gene linked to touch in the tentacles of sea anemones as well as hearing in humans.

Noncoding DNA mutations prevent the brain from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

When a condition is connected to a genetic mutation, it is generally negative news.

Researchers discover a unique technique to fight hospital-borne disease

A study team developed an early-stage therapy that sabotages the pump and restores antibiotic efficiency by disclosing the structure of a protein needed by bacteria to pump out antibiotics.

New insights into better crime scene investigation

Skin cells and their DNA varies between individuals, but new data from Flinders University shows that some groups of people have higher variability in their cell deposits.

Light-induced cellular apoptosis method can kill diseased cells without causing adverse reactions

Cancer has been the leading cause of death in Japan over the past 40 years. Despite the rise in patients due to the aging population, progresses in diagnosis and treatment are leading to higher survival rates.

Understanding how cleaning up bad mitochondria affects stem cell division

Most of us remember enough biology to recall that mitochondria are known as "the powerhouse of the cell." Even that audacious term may downplay the importance of mitochondria and what happens when mitochondria go bad.

Researchers show how proteins form DNA-repair mechanism in living bacteria

Two recent research have shown a completely new perspective of how bacterial cells repair broken parts of their DNA (lesions).

ATM kinase inhibitor combines with target therapies to wipe out cancer cells

While cancer therapies that target specific genes or disease pathways might prolong life span, they can also result in highly resistant tumors when tiny reservoirs of cancer cells survive therapy, develop, and spread.

Researchers focus to create a new class of molecules for curing biofilm infections

Chronic skin wounds are a rising global issue among the elderly, individuals with severe burns, and people with underlying medical diseases such as diabetes.

Study explores that extra dosages of genes may lead to surplus X chromosomes

One out of every 500 to 1,000 boys is born with one or more extra X chromosomes, which can cause a variety of symptoms as the extra chromosomes to including infertility, larger breasts, osteoporosis, diabetes, cardiac problems, intellectual incapacity, and cancer.

Researchers determine major protein complexes that cause ribosome production

Scientists at UT Southwestern have discovered a four-protein complex that seems to play a significant function in the formation of ribosomes, which serve as protein factories for cells, as well as a surprise role in neurodevelopmental diseases.

Forensic science experts develop new insights into crime scene analysis

Individuals deposit skin cells and DNA in different ways, but recent research from Flinders University suggests that certain people have stronger intra-variability in their cell deposits.

Study helps to make sense of cell-to-cell variation in response to external stimuli

Why do genetically similar cells react to the same extrinsic stimuli, such as antibiotics, in such diverse ways?

1 Apr 2022

Exceptional research recordings display RNA switching “on” and “off”

RNA switches (also known as riboswitches) control which genes are turned “on” and “off”, much like a light switch. Although this appears to be a straightforward process, biologists have been astonished by the inner workings of these switches for decades.
