Nitrogen, upon which all life on Earth depends, may hold the key for explaining how early life on the planet evolved and how it could evolve on other planets.

Welcome back to a new semester of Dissertation Diaries. As a reminder, this is the series where we highlight Ph.D. students ...

Researchers use synthetic biology to reverse-engineer modern nitrogenases and rebuild their possible ancestors, in an effort to better understand the origins of life on Earth and beyond.

Macrolides are an important class of antibiotics that includes drugs such as azithromycin and erythromycin, which are widely ...

Macrolide antibiotics like azithromycin rely on a complex ring structure that’s powerful but notoriously hard to control.  Researchers have uncovered how bacterial enzymes shape this ring during the ...

The lab has developed ultra-small DNA nanodevices that can function inside living cells, illuminating biological processes.

A new study shows how one of the cell's most important energy-producing machines is built. Researchers at Karolinska ...

Researchers at Colorado State University have determined how to use artificial intelligence to modify antibodies so they act ...
