GAS2 is a cytoskeletal regulator that interacts with both F-actin and microtubules. Here, cryo-EM structures of GAS2 domains ...

Researchers used advanced cryo-electron microscopy to capture atomic-level images of how glutamate, a key neurotransmitter, opens channels in brain cells.

MSK researchers shed new light on G-quadruplexes, a type of secondary DNA structure that has attracted attention as a potential therapeutic target in cancer.

Using cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), a team of structural and molecular biologists at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) set out to investigate G4s -- which have gained attention as ...

Given that microbes helped make Earth habitable, we could use synthetic biology to engineer microbes to speed up a similar ...

For the first time, researchers have filmed in real time the disassembly of DNA at the atomic scale. This strand separation ...

Six years before the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, an Ebola outbreak in West Africa had people fearing the possibility of a ...

Cryoelectron microscopy is a method for imaging frozen-hydrated specimens at cryogenic temperatures by electron microscopy. Specimens remain in their native state without the need for dyes or ...

mobile's motility mechanisms. This time, with the help of Osaka University's cryo-electron microscopy equipment, the scientists revealed at near-atomic resolution the enzymes known as ATPases that ...

Using cutting-edge cryo-electron microscopy, scientists at the University of Leicester have captured the first detailed “molecular movie” showing DNA being unzipped at the atomic level. The movie ...
