A new study explores how surface coatings influence water absorption and selectivity in metal–organic nanotubes, offering ...

RNA has recently gained attention as a promising drug target. Unfortunately, only a small fraction of RNA structures have been determined experimentally, and the process of uncovering these ...

According to Prof. Bartal, “The fact that a quasicrystal is a ‘shadow’ of a periodic crystal in a higher dimension is not new in itself. What we discovered is that the projection includes not only the ...

Malta is home to some of the oldest and arguably most mysterious megalithic structures known to man, older than the Pyramids and Stonehenge. Malta’s ancient temples date back to 3600 to 2500 BC. Some ...

Here we describe the 1.8 Å resolution crystal structure of the N-terminal, heparin-binding domain of APP (residues 28–123), which is responsible, among other things, for stimulation of neurite ...

Previous research has shown that six Hfq subunits combine to form a ring-shaped structure and has also provided some clues about the way in which ... The organisation of the RNA in the crystal would ...

Currently most of the X-ray crystal structures in the Protein Data Bank are ‘snap-shots’ with limited or no information about protein dynamics. However, X-ray diffraction patterns are affected by the ...
