Our data also provide clues to biological function for hundreds of previously uncharacterized human genes. We set out to identify cell-cycle–regulated transcripts in human cells on a genome-wide ...

At the start of the 21st century, scientists had little idea why we sleep, leading J. Allan Hobson at Harvard Medical School to quip that the only known function of sleep was to cure sleepiness. But ...

Girolline, a compound extracted from the sea sponge Pseudaxinyssa cantharella, has been investigated for possible antitumor effects and also found to have anti-malarial effects. Now, researchers have ...
