Researchers have developed synthetic genes that function like the genes in living cells. The artificial genes can build intracellular structures through a cascading sequence that builds ...
In 2020 biologist Michael Levin and his colleagues reported that they had made “biological robots” by shaping clusters of cells into tiny artificial forms that could “walk” around on surfaces. Levin’s ...
Built from thickets of glucose, galactose, mannose and more, the glycome plays key roles in cell communication, immunity and ...
Hormones coordinate different body functions by carrying messages through the bloodstream to target cells and tissues. Hormonal imbalances occur through inadequate or excess hormone synthesis, which ...
An international research team from Bielefeld University and the Leibniz-Forschungsinstitut für Molekulare Pharmakologie (FMP ...
Researchers at the Université de Genève have built a DNA-based drug delivery system that reads pairs of protein markers on a ...
In a first-of-its-kind study, researchers demonstrate that functional nervous systems can form within self-organized living ...
