Polyphosphate (polyP) exists in all life forms; however, its biological functions in metazoans are understudied. Here, we explored Drosophila as the first genetic model to explore polyP biology in ...

Researchers at the Arc Institute, Stanford University, and NVIDIA have developed Evo 2, an advanced AI model capable of ...

Now researchers might have uncovered a source for this resilience: the second X chromosome in female cells that was previously considered ‘silent’. Why the sexes don’t feel pain the same way ...

prokaryotic genome of Mycoplasma genitalium, a commonly used model of the minimum genome, and 3) yeast chromosome, which represents eukaryotic organisms. For all three design tasks, the preprint ...

AhCobQ, a novel bacterial lysine deacetylase, functions independently of NAD+ and Zn2+, revealing a previously unknown domain and broad implications for metabolic regulation in prokaryotic systems.

Univ Brest, Ifremer, Biologie et Ecologie des Ecosystèmes Marins Profonds (BEEP), Plouzané, France In my opinion, these discoveries challenge the “classical” models of DNA replication. Archaea are not ...

The rapid diversification of synthetic biology tools holds promise in making some classically hard-to-solve environmental problems tractable. Here we review longstanding problems in the Earth and ...
