New insights into how cell shape influences protein transport rates
When a cell spreads out or changes its shape to adapt to its environment, the transport rate of proteins between the nucleus and cytoplasm changes. Previously, scientists assumed this change was caused by a shift in the size of the nuclear envelope's.....»»
Caffeine may be a useful marker of wastewater leaks in storm drain systems
In developed countries such as Japan, wastewater systems designed to keep harmful pollutants out of storm drainage are aging and deteriorating, sending contaminants into local bodies of water. Finding the source of a leak in wastewater systems that a.....»»
Lab-grown burgers and cricket salads could be "norm" by 2054, says UK report
Attitudes towards healthy diets could see insect proteins, including crickets, locusts, and grasshoppers becoming part of a more "flexitarian diet" in 2054, say researchers......»»
Ultracompact and high-efficiency liquid-crystal-on-silicon light engines for augmented reality glasses
Augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) are innovative display technologies with the ability to revolutionize the way we interact and experience the world......»»
Engineered plants produce human milk sugars that could lead to healthier baby formula
Worldwide, a majority of babies—approximately 75%—drink infant formula in their first six months of life, either as a sole source of nutrition or as a supplement to breastfeeding. But while formula provides essential food for growing babies, it c.....»»
Eye Tracking lets you navigate iOS 18 without touching your iPhone
Apple's Eye Tracking tech offers a new way for iPhone and iPad owners to interact with their devices. The first appearance in iOS 18 demonstrates how powerful it can be to some users.Eye Tracking in Settings for iOS 18In May, Apple revealed some of t.....»»
New method enables fast crystal structure analysis of intrinsically disordered proteins
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) can dynamically change their conformations depending on their external environment and can, therefore, bind to different compounds. However, they are difficult to analyze. Now, Tokyo Tech researchers have addr.....»»
Scientists discover non-transcriptional mechanism of karrikin signaling transduction
Researchers led by Dr. Wang Lei and Wang Bing from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have shown that the non-transcriptional activity of the transcriptional repressor proteins SUPPRESSOR OF MAX2 1.....»»
New tool to detect protein-protein interactions could lead to promising avenues for gene therapy and other treatments
SMU nanotechnology expert MinJun Kim and his team have developed a faster, more precise way to detect the properties and interactions of individual proteins crucial in rapid, accurate, and real-time monitoring of virus-cell interactions. This could p.....»»
Not wrapping but folding: Bacteria also organize their DNA, but they do it a bit differently
Some bacteria, it turns out, have proteins much like ours that organize the DNA in their cells. They just do it a bit differently. This is revealed by new research from biochemists at the Leiden Institute of Chemistry and the Max Planck Institute for.....»»
These are the new features coming to AirPods this year
At WWDC 2024 today, Apple announced new features coming to AirPods and AirPods Pro later this year. There are new ways to interact with Siri, a new Voice Isolation feature, and Personalized Spatial Audio for gaming. more….....»»
How does light interact with matter at extreme intensities, near the Schwinger limit?
The experimental generation of increasingly intense light beams could help to unveil new physical regimes occurring in the presence of very strong electromagnetic fields. While some progress has been made towards this goal, physicists are yet to deve.....»»
Spliceosomes: New technique tracks proteins involved in RNA splicing
Bodybuilders and cellular mechanisms agree generating protein is a heavy lift. To complete the task, cells rely on complexes called spliceosomes. These molecular machines snip extra bits out of our genes' RNA copies and piece together precise instruc.....»»
With So Much Bird Flu Around, Are Eggs, Chicken, and Milk Still Safe to Consume?
A food microbiologist explains why you shouldn’t worry about consuming poultry or dairy—so long as you take the right precautions......»»
Concept imagines how Siri could use AI to read and interact with what’s on the screen
Apple is rumored to announce many new AI features for its devices next week at WWDC 2024, and some of the rumors say that the company will use generative AI to make Siri better. With this in mind, designer João Bortolotti created a concept imagining.....»»
New insights into how cyanobacterial proteins cycle carbon in changing conditions
The products of photosynthesis are easy to point out. Plants, algae and cyanobacteria create the air we breathe and the fuel for food webs as they turn carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and sugars. How photosynthesis works, though, is much harder.....»»
How a protein component of nuclear pore complexes regulates development of blood cells, contributes to myeloid disorders
Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are channels composed of multiple proteins that ferry molecules in and out of the nucleus, regulating many critical cellular functions, such as gene expression, chromatin organization and RNA processes that influence cel.....»»
