Researchers have found a way to trap telomerase, the enzyme cancer cells rely on for endless division, in a stalled and ...

For organs to develop, grow and regenerate, cells must proliferate. But when that process goes awry, leading to uncontrolled cell growth, cancer can emerge. New CU Boulder research, published in the ...

AMES, Iowa – The coronavirus that causes COVID-19 has demonstrated a stubborn ability to resist most nucleoside antiviral treatments, but a new study led by an Iowa State University scientist could ...

Putting the brakes on an enzyme might rescue neurons that are dying due to a type of Parkinson's disease that's caused by a single genetic mutation, according to a new Stanford Medicine-led study ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. – Sugars known as glycans form dense envelopes around cells. But they’re often ignored in biological investigations because, unlike DNA, proteins and other cellular components, tools to ...

New research offers unprecedented insight into how an enigmatic enzyme, known as CDK7, drives the cell cycle and cell proliferation. For organs to develop, grow and regenerate, cells must proliferate.

Neurons (blue) rooted in the substantia nigra provide dopamine (dark green dots) to striatal neurons (red). Stressed dopamine-secreting neurons (blue) emit chemical distress signals (upward arrows).
