Biologists Baffled by Never-Before-Seen Structure in a Tiny Organism

The research is opening new frontiers in pest control and evolutionary biology. An international group of scientists has uncovered a strange tubular structure within Profftella, a bacterium that lives in close partnership with a major citrus pest. Nothing like this structure has ever been documented in any living organism. The discovery, made possible through advanced [...]

Profound Implications: New Research Challenges a 70-Year-Old Theory of Protein Folding

The findings of the study call into question a long-held belief about the way proteins fold within our cells and have significant ramifications for the treatment of illnesses connected to protein misfolding. A groundbreaking study by researchers at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Acceler
