SuperLigands - a database of ligand structures derived from the Protein Data Bank
Scientists have isolated the first human embryonic stem cell lines specifically tailored to match the nuclear DNA of patients, both males and females of various ages, suffering from disease or spinal cord injury. These ce...Bad aftertaste? New sensory on/off switch may 'cure' bane of artificial sweetener search
Chemistry and biology researchers at Virginia Tech have enhanced the abilities of the molecules they are creating to deliver killing blows to cancer cells. The man-made molecular complexes enter cancer cells and, when signaled, deliver killing medicine or cause the cell to change. The new supermolecules have more units that will absorb light - providing more control over the range of light freque...Chemical 'band-aid' prevents heart failure in mice with muscular dystrophy
