The eukaryotic cell, the most significant increase in complexity in the history of life's evolution on Earth, emerged as a phase transition and unlocked the path toward other major transitions ...

This useful study reports a method to detect and analyze a novel post-translational modification, lysine acetoacetylation (Kacac), finding it regulates protein metabolism pathways. The study unveils ...

As an independent investigator at the National Institutes of Health (NIH)—where she set up shop in 1976—Gottesman made major contributions in the field of prokaryotic gene regulation, uncovering key ...

There are, of course, the standard prokaryotic, yeast and mammalian leagues. Within the last few years, a number of expansion leagues have been added, including Baculovirus and specialized spin-offs ...

While the endosymbiotic theory is widely accepted, the billions of years that have passed since the fusion of an Archaea and a Bacteria have resulted in a lack of evolutionary intermediates in the ...
