Our brain's remarkable ability to form and store memories has long fascinated scientists, yet most of the microscopic mechanisms behind memory and learning processes remain a mystery.

Mycobacteria are the world's most deadly bacteria --c ausing infectious diseases including tuberculosis (TB), which alone kills more than one million people each year. New drugs to fight these ...

New research shows Glycolysis -- the process of converting sugar into energy -- plays a key role in early development. More than fuel, Glycolysis doesn't just power cells -- it helps steer them toward ...

A study by researchers at Fred Hutch Cancer Center published in Nature revises the standard story about transcription factors ...

Complex protein interactions at synapses are essential for memory formation in our brains, but the mechanisms behind these ...

Starch and oils are known as storehouses of carbon in plants. However, the way in which carbon resources are allocated during ...

Using a forward genetics approach, researchers identified the LIRI1 gene to be the key regulator of carbon allocation in plant leaves, balancing starch and triacylglycerol (TAG) storage. LIRI1 ...

Plants store carbon in two primary forms: starch and triacylglycerols (TAGs). Starch is mainly stored in chloroplasts in ...

Scientists apply principles of math and physics to unravel the mystery of how the endoplasmic reticulum, an organelle vital ...
