Thermal analysis has been combined with X-ray scattering — two techniques for studying crystal structure — in one experimental setup to investigate semicrystalline polymers.

Clever re-purposing of a biological tool gives researchers new clues as to how flu remains so successful.

An innovative approach has been used to identify thousands of antibiotic resistance genes found in bacteria that inhabit the human gut.

An “elastic” protein structure that can absorb dissolved xenon in a self-regulating way may make it easier for high-quality images to be obtained.

Five percent of acute leukemia cases are diagnosed as mixed lineage leukemia (MLL). MLL is an aggressive blood cancer that predominantly occurs in infants and has been difficult to treat. Now, researchers have identified a very common protein as the single key to the cascade of events leading to MLL. Shutting down this protein may be a cure.

Researchers have determined the structure of an enzyme critical for the removal of excess cholesterol from the body, and bound to a chemical that boosts its activity, paving the way for potential new therapeutics to treat heart and kidney failure.

Recent research has shed light on the molecular mechanism of valvular heart disease caused by a genetic mutation in Filamin gene.

Mitochondria possess elaborate machineries for the import of proteins from the cytosol. 'J-proteins' target receptors on the translocase of the mitochondrial outer membrane and promote the biogenesis of mitochondrial proteins.

A single protein induces a spiral motion in another molecule and through a domino effect, this causes cells, organs, and indeed the entire body to twist.

More visitors than ever before and organisers announce dates for next year’s show - 30-31st October 2019.
