The aquatic environment is full of tantalizing chemicals that can guide a fish to mates or meals. Now, scientists in Japan have identified the olfactory receptor and brain circuitry that picks up the ...

F-Type ATP synthase, a catalytic complex of proteins, synthesizes adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy currency of living cells. A lot of ambiguity exists over the rotational mechanism of this ...

Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have characterized a hidden intermediate state at the center of Src kinase function. This hidden state allows the kinase to repeatedly modify its ...

Researchers found that the cells of young adults with depression overproduce energy while resting but struggle to respond to ...

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a molecule that provides crucial energy to activate a wide array of biological processes, in many organisms including the movement of muscles and the propagation of ...
