An enzyme type noted in several cancers is the family of adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADARs). These enzymes convert adenosines in double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) into inosines, which cells read as ...
Researchers at the Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), Kanazawa University observe and model how the enzyme ADAR1 interacts with double-stranded RNA, which may be useful for future cancer ...
Thought LeaderDr. George HeathUniversity Academic FellowUniversity of Leeds In this interview, AZoNano speaks with Dr. George Heath from the University of Leeds, UK, about the fundamental principles ...
Scientists at the Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), Kanazawa University, have captured real-time images showing how a key brain enzyme organizes itself to help memory formation. Their study, ...
Nuclear pore complexes are more dynamic than previously thought, reshaping our understanding of a vital transport process in cells. An international study led by the University of Basel (Switzerland) ...
In 2018, an artificial intelligence (AI) program called AlphaFold achieved a major breakthrough by placing first in the critical assessment of structure prediction, a competition for predicting the ...
High-speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM) has emerged as a transformative tool for characterising the dynamic behaviour of biological specimens at nanometre spatial and millisecond temporal scales.
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a technique originally developed to assess the physical and mechanical properties of materials at extremely high resolutions, but the imaging speeds aren't fast enough ...
What Is Atomic Force Microscopy? Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a powerful technique that enables surface ultrastructure visualization at molecular resolution. 1 Besides three-dimensional (3D) ...
New imaging reveals cancer-linked ADAR1 enzyme structure, potentially enabling targeted therapies by combining HS-AFM and 3D modeling techniques. (Nanowerk News) An enzyme type noted in several ...
