Vaults are mysterious cellular structures that can be genetically engineered to store information about a cell’s history.

After centuries of mapping the human body in ever-finer detail, scientists are still making discoveries. Here we are, in 2025, and a previously unknown cellular structure that could be vital to our ...

YAHOO.COM - Sixty years after scientists described the chemical code of life — an interweaving double helix called DNA — researchers have found four-stranded DNA is also lurking in human cells. The ...

Inside every human cell, a molecular machine quietly shreds damaged proteins to keep life running smoothly. Researchers have now shown that this same machine also forges tiny antibiotic fragments that ...

Scientists at Rutgers University–Newark have developed a first-of-its-kind RNA-based nanotechnology that assembles itself inside living human cells and can be programmed to stop propagation of harmful ...

Inside human cells, biology has pulled off the ultimate packing job, figuring out how to fit six feet of DNA into a nucleus about one-tenth as wide as a human hair while making sure the all-important ...

DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave. Researchers have now mapped this hidden architecture in unprecedented detail, showing ...

In A Nutshell As cells age, they deliberately shrink a major internal structure called the endoplasmic reticulum. This downsizing happens early in adulthood and shifts cells away from protein ...

The study found that flu viruses need bigger bulges on the cell’s surface to get inside. These bulges are made from actin, a protein that helps shape the cell, and they weren’t stopped by certain ...

First discovered in 1986, vaults are mysterious organelles whose exact functions still remain unknown. Now, researchers themselves have given vaults a function. When genetically engineered to capture ...
