A metabolic enzyme studied for over seven decades has a hidden second function—it can unwind RNA and promote cell cycle progression, an additional function beyond its role in energy production, ...

Researchers have revealed how bacteria precisely control the genes that trigger cell division. The study shows that the MraZ protein, which normally forms a donut-shaped structure, must bend and ...

Biochemistry and cell biology investigate the molecular underpinnings of life, spanning the structure, function and interplay of biomolecules within cells. At its core, biochemistry elucidates the ...
