Dps proteins (DNA-binding proteins from starved cells) are vital components in the defence strategies of bacteria facing environmental stress. These proteins not only bind and compact chromosomal DNA, ...

A new artificial intelligence model can predict how different proteins may bind to DNA. A new artificial intelligence model developed by USC researchers and published in Nature Methods can predict how ...

Some pathogens use temperature as a trigger and activate virulence only after entering the warmer environment of a host. A research team from Ruhr University Bochum, Germany, and the University of ...

With a new study in the journal Cell, researchers at Stanford University and Stockholm University have contributed to increased knowledge about gene regulation in human cells. How genes are turned on ...

In the early 1980s, David Gilmour, now an emeritus biochemistry and molecular biology professor at Pennsylvania State University, joined the laboratory of geneticist and biochemist John Lis as a ...

A new analysis of research into the most common type of breast cancer has zeroed in on an overlooked hormone that may be responsible for the increased risk of breast cancer death in postmenopausal ...

Researchers at the Université de Genève have built a DNA-based drug delivery system that reads pairs of protein markers on a ...

Cancer treatment has long been haunted by the same problem: how do you strike dangerous cells without hitting healthy ones ...

A new artificial intelligence model developed by USC researchers and published in Nature Methods can predict how different proteins may bind to DNA with accuracy across different types of protein, a ...
