Addressing one of the most profoundly unanswered questions in biology, a Rutgers-led team has discovered the structures of proteins that may be responsible for the origins of life in the primordial soup of ancient Earth.

A research group has discovered the mechanism by which the Rhesus macaque Macaca mulatta naturally develops a lasting immune response against schistosomiasis.

A computational model is being used to predict how different spatial structures of tumors will impact tumor evolution.

A tool, called cell2location, has been developed by researchers and can pinpoint the location of detailed immune cell types in the human gut and lymph node, as well as map the fine-grained structure of the mouse brain.

By studying the plant Arabidopsis thaliana, researchers have found that RNA messages need a special protein to escort them where they need to go and without this escort, the plant fails to develop properly.

Researchers have found that long before the onset of dementia, there is evidence for increased activity of the brain’s immune system.

Phthalates – found in many consumer products – may disrupt levels of a pregnancy hormone that promotes the onset of labor.

Researchers have solved the first 3D structure of an enzyme, called RNF216, that controls proteins to signal and communicate with each other in human cells.

New UCLA-led research in mice suggests that adding a certain type of tomato concentrate to the diet can reduce the intestinal inflammation that is associated with HIV.

Researchers have discovered that a previously little-known protein is necessary for acute myeloid leukemia cell survival.
