Using heavy water, the researchers could also selectively introduce deuterium atoms along with chlorine. The weightier hydrogen isotope is useful for probing reaction mechanisms, as well as studying ...
ApoB100 is a key protein in normal metabolism and in heart disease. Beginning before the protein’s synthesis is completed, it collects cholesterol and fats into particles that allow these ...
Researchers have tested strategies to combine riboswitches—RNA motifs that change conformation in response to binding another molecule—with these aptamers to create biosensors that fluoresce only when ...
Researchers have figured out a way to make an RNA biosensor that fluoresces when it encounters small inorganic metabolites—not by engineering the RNA but by adjusting its fluorogenic ligand ...
