A remarkably small bacterium containing fewer than 500 genes serves as the basis for one of the most detailed digital life ...

By simulating the life cycle of a minimal bacterial cell—from DNA replication to protein translation to metabolism and cell ...

By simulating the life cycle of a minimal bacterial cell - from DNA replication to protein translation to metabolism and cell division - scientists have opened a new frontier of computer vision into ...

Imaging-based single-cell physiological profiling holds great potential for uncovering fundamental bacterial cold shock response (CSR) mechanisms, but its application is impeded by severe focus drift ...

It infects nearly one-third of the global population, yet its microscopic size makes the parasite difficult for scientists to study. That parasite is Toxoplasma gondii, a widespread organism that ...

We're another step closer to finding a real cure for baldness. For the first time, scientists have created functional hair ...

OrganTech, Inc. announced that its research team has defined a minimal stem cell set required for functional hair follicle ...

Cas9, Transcription Activator-Like Effector Nucleases (TALENs), and Zinc-Finger nucleases (ZFNs) have demonstrated great utility, primarily for genetic knock-out applications, none have been adopted ...

CRISPR gene drives bias inheritance in pests, advancing population-level control while raising questions about resistance and ...

One disease that arises from disruptions in the cell cycle is cancer. After a series of events, a normal cell begins to divide uncontrollably and becomes a tumour cell. Breast tumours are a complex ...
