Developing new techniques to build biomaterials
Scientists at the University of Leeds have developed an approach that could help in the design of a new generation of synthetic biomaterials made from proteins.
A sharper focus on protein behaviour
Scientists have developed a new computational technique that allows them to see in finer detail the way protein molecules behave.
Discovery of methanol in a 'warm' planet-forming disk
Astronomers have identified the molecule methanol in the ‘warm zones’ of a protoplanetary disk circling a star about 360 light years from Earth.
Revealing the secrets of photosynthesis
New scientific techniques are allowing scientists to investigate the role of individual proteins during photosynthesis.
Scientists show DNA "dancing" for the first time
By using high resolution images and supercomputer simulations, scientists have shown for the first time how DNA adopts dance-like movements within cells.
