Peptides Can Form Without Amino Acids

The results of the study may also be useful to the field of synthetic chemistry, as amide bond formation is essential for many commercially critical synthetic materials, bioactive compounds, and pharmaceuticals

Study Identified a Great Way to Know How Much Water Snowpacks Hold

With the use of a database of snow pillow measurements, the team was able to validate the model, a snow pillow measures snow-water equivalents through the pressure they exerted by the snow on top of it, and also as a pair of large independent data sets, one from western North America, the other from the northeastern United States

Researchers Discover New Potential Target in Brain Cancer

The team discovered that inhibiting ID1 slows the progression of tumors in glioblastoma, breast adenocarcinoma, and melanoma. In human tissue, researchers found that the protein caused cells to be more resistant to chemotherapy treatment in glioblastoma

Researchers Create New AI Tool for Detecting Unfair Discrimination

The researchers created an AI tool for detecting discrimination concerning a protected attribute such as gender or race by human decision makers or AI systems that are based on the concept of causality in which one thing, a cause, causes another thing, an effect

Minecraft Can Help Boost Creativity

The researchers say even first-person shooter games can potentially inspire creativity as players think about strategy and look for advantages in combat

A Unique Way to Make Complex Structures in Thin Films

The new technique had two different, inconsistent patterns with one forming a set of posts or lines etched on a substrate material, and the other is an inherent pattern that is created by the self-assembling copolymer

Exceptional Human-on-a-Chip Predicts in Vivo Results Based on in Vitro Model

According to the pioneers of the human-on-a-chip in vitro system, they announced the use of its unique multi-organ model to successfully measure the concentration and metabolism of two known cardiotoxic small molecules over time, to accurately describe the drug behavior and toxic effects in vivo. Furthermore, the findings support the potential of body-on-a-chip systems to transform the drug discovery process.

Black (Nano) Gold Combat Climate Change

By utilizing the methods of nanotechnology, the researchers transformed golden gold to black gold by changing the size and gaps between gold nanoparticles

A Unique Tool for Live-Cell Imaging

The biomolecules human immune systems deploy to find, tag, and destroy invading pathogens are the antibodies. Their work includes binding to specific targets, called epitopes, on the surfaces of antigens, like locks to keys. Scientists have, for so many years, exploited this selective tagging mechanism in natural antibodies to engineer antibody-based probes that let them purify and study different types of proteins within cells.
