A new study in Nature Communications shows how one of the cell's most important energy-producing machines is built.

Inspired by biological systems, materials scientists have long sought to harness self-assembly to build nanomaterials. The ...

A recent article in Small describes a modular platform for assembling protein-DNA composites using covalent, site-specific conjugation. This method enables the formation of stable structures with ...

Proteins, the pillars of cellular function, often assemble into 'complexes' to fulfill their functions. A study reveals why this assembly often begins during the very process of protein synthesis or ...

Beta-coronaviruses, including SARS-CoV-2, have caused global health problems. How the virus infects host cells and triggers immunological responses has been investigated extensively. However, how the ...

Researchers combined advanced imaging techniques and theoretical physics to observe and explain how nanoclusters of the protein emerin form inside living cells. The study uncovers the molecular 'rules ...

Researchers uncover geometric principles governing how particles self-assemble, solving a long-standing challenge in ...
