Threads or ropes can easily be used for braiding, knotting, and weaving. In chemistry, however, processing molecular strands ...

Researchers at Kumamoto University and Nagoya University have developed a new class of two-dimensional (2D) metal-organic ...

A new study uncovers revealing insights into how plastic materials used in electronics are formed, and how hidden flaws in ...

The glycocalyx surrounds each cell in the human body like a coat. This complex sugar layer plays a key role in the ...

If you rotate an image of a molecular structure, a human can tell the rotated image is still the same molecule, but a machine ...

In chemistry, however, processing molecular strands in this way is an almost impossible task. This is because molecules are not only tiny, they are also constantly in motion and therefore cannot be ...

Scientists at OIST have defied a foundational rule in chemistry by creating a stable 20-electron version of ferrocene—an ...

A team led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers has uncovered the atomic structure of a protein complex pivotal to ...

Structure of an entire DT57C bacteriophage. The entire virus was reconstructed in three dimensions at near-atomic resolution and visualized in this animation. The word “virus” is often ...

The structure showed 12 transmembrane helices in two pseudo-symmetric bundles and two periplasmic subdomains. Experiments showed that the coiled-coil domain, whose predicted model extends from one of ...
