Cancer cells have special adaptation mechanisms that allow them to proliferate despite changes in their genetic makeup.

This important study demonstrates the potential of synthetic gene circuits to detect and target aberrant RAS activity in cancer cell lines. The circuit design is novel and the evidence supporting the ...

Proteins are the workhorses that keep our cells running, and there are many thousands of types of proteins in our cells, each performing a specialized function. Researchers have long known that the ...

This is an important and solid study that examines the role of TFAM, a protein that helps maintain mtDNA, in mtDNA mutator mice. The authors have demonstrated that TFAM's counteractive role in mtDNA ...

Molecular evolution is the area of evolutionary ... that might lead to biological molecules. Now an experimental model of chemical evolution based on oscillating water activity has been established.
