"ZIP" codes tell RNA molecules how to get to their designated locations
They say that life comes without an instruction manual, but that's not entirely true. Each cell in our bodies lives according to instructions issued by its DNA in the form of RNA molecules. RNA was recently thrust into the limelight as the basis of i.....»»
Chemical biology: A novel approach to synthesize dibenzothiophene s-oxides
Organic compounds in the field of chemistry range from simple hydrocarbons to complex molecules, with diverse functional groups added to the main carbon backbone. These functional groups impart distinct chemical properties to the compounds and partic.....»»
Understanding nutrient cycling between algae and bacteria could lead to increased biofuel production
The interactions between algae and bacteria are essential to the primary productivity of Earth's oceans and surface waters. Bacteria can increase the productivity of algae by producing key factors, such as vitamins, iron-chelating molecules, and grow.....»»
Enzyme for biocatalysis uses solvent as a substrate
A large number of applications in the chemical industry rely on the molecules NADH or NADPH as fuel. A team led by Professor Dirk Tischler, head of the Microbial Biotechnology working group at Ruhr University Bochum, used a biocatalyst to study their.....»»
Sonic Automotive, Penske Automotive shutter used-vehicle-only dealerships
More than 140 people were laid off at Northwest Motorsport locations, according to a Washington state government filing......»»
Using photos to create 3D models helps us understand, and protect, complex marine environments
Measuring the impact of different events, such as marine heat waves, on the abundance of marine organisms is not easy. Biological communities naturally change over time and between different locations......»»
Here"s where Colorado"s new wolves have roamed over the last month
The 10 wolves released in Colorado last month and two wolves from a pack that migrated here from Wyoming have remained in the central and northern mountains, according to a map showing the general locations of the animals released Wednesday by state.....»»
New design improves water decontamination via plasma jet
Plasma is an ionized gas—that is, a gas containing electrons, ions, atoms, molecules, radicals, and photons. It is often called the fourth state of matter, and surprisingly, it permeates everything. Plasmas, which are artificially generated by tran.....»»
Research unveils how plants control the production of reactive oxygen species
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are highly reactive molecules containing oxygen. These compounds, which are normal byproducts of biological processes in all living organisms such as aerobic respiration as well as photosynthesis, are highly toxic. In mo.....»»
Sonic appears to close all Northwest Motorsport used-vehicle stores
Last year, Sonic Automotive closed three of Northwest Motorsport's 11 locations......»»
Researcher discovers critically endangered bats in two new locations
The Jamaican flower bat is endangered—so much so that experts believed only a small colony of about 500 existed in a single cave......»»
Study offers new insights into understanding and controlling tunneling dynamics in complex molecules
Tunneling is one of most fundamental processes in quantum mechanics, where the wave packet could traverse a classically insurmountable energy barrier with a certain probability......»»
Cells" electric fields keep nanoparticles at bay, scientists confirm
The humble membranes that enclose our cells have a surprising superpower: They can push away nano-sized molecules that happen to approach them. A team including scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has figured out w.....»»
LipidOz: New software enables identification of lipid double bond locations
Lipids are a class of biomolecules that play an important role in many cellular processes. Analyses that seek to characterize all lipids in a sample—called lipidomics—are crucial to studying complex biological systems......»»
Innovative membrane platform enables analysis "down to a handful of gas atoms"
Northwestern University researchers have developed a novel method to host gas molecules as they are being analyzed in real time, using honeycomb structures found in nature as inspiration for an ultra-thin ceramic membrane they incorporated to encase.....»»
Apple is closing many of its stores in the US early as Vision Pro launch nears
Apple Vision Pro is coming, and that means Apple Store locations in the United States will have some weird hours in the coming days. more….....»»
"Magic trap" preserves quantum coherence in ultracold molecules longer than expected
Quantum technologies bring the promise of faster computing, enhanced drug development and new sensing applications. However, quantum behaviors are difficult to study experimentally since most systems can only sustain quantum effects for a short time......»»
Astronomers detect new faint tidal disruption event
An international team of astronomers reports the detection of a new tidal disruption event (TDE) as part of All-Sky Automated Survey for SuperNovae (ASAS-SN). The newfound TDE, designated ASASSN-23bd, turns out to be the least luminous and the lowest.....»»
Researchers develop a low-cost catalyst for green hydrogen production
Electrolysis is a process that uses electricity to create hydrogen and oxygen molecules from water. The use of proton exchange membrane (PEM) and renewable energy for water electrolysis is widely regarded as a sustainable method for hydrogen producti.....»»
All Azure Ingot locations in Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown
Azure Ingots are the only way to make your swords and bow stronger in Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown. If you want both at max power, you will need them all......»»
Researchers address formulation, manufacturing challenges in obesity, diabetes drugs
Medications such as Ozempic and Mounjaro are composed of molecules called acylated peptides that are designed to circulate in the body and regulate insulin production. This enables adults with type 2 diabetes to take a weekly injection instead of mon.....»»
