New insights into the DNA repair mechanisms of cells may open avenues to enhancing anti-cancer therapies. Researchers from the Nagoya University in Japan have discovered new mechanisms that are...
Researchers have discovered a DNA derivative that inhibits a key enzyme associated with the worsening of the excessive growth of cancer cells, showing promise as an antiproliferative cancer...
This new bottom-up design strategy could be integrated into the creation of molecular machines and robots, potentially advancing nanopore technology. Biological nanopores are generally created by...
Researchers have developed a multi-functional, small molecule that can tag mutant mitochondrial gene sequences for removal. The mitochondria are best known as the powerhouse of the cell, but they are...
New research from Duke-NUS Medical School, and the Agency for Science, Technology and Research identifies chemotherapy-resistant cancers’ escape mechanism, which offers new anticancer treatment...
Researchers from Stanford University developed approach that holds the promise of forecasting such ecosystem changes as certain species become more prevalent or vanish altogether. When wolves...
Researchers from the Biological Physics Theory Unit at the Okinawa Institute of Technology Graduate University (OIST) use mathematical modelling to dispel the belief that the behaviour of living...
Researchers from China explore the extensive genetic diversity among soybean germplasms through the construction of a complete pan-genome from diverse soybean accessions. The research group led by...
A study claims to have found preserved cells, proteins and even DNA in the 75-million-year-old fossils of a baby duck-billed dinosaur. An international team of researchers from China, Canada and the...
In a decade-long global effort by world class institutions in Singapore, the UK and USA, has developed the most detailed catalogue of mutational fingerprints found in most types of cancers that could...
A chat with the woman who invented the use of immunoassays for measuring chemical carcinogen-induced DNA damage. I became a scientist because… My Dad was a chemical engineer who worked in the...
SMART team’s genetic breakthrough set to improve crop yields in urban farms. by Dr Sarojam Rajani and Dr Kang Zhou Fast-forward a decade, to a time when Singapore grows a third of the food it...
