Jantana Keereetaweep, a biochemistry research associate in the biology department at the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory, has been awarded the Paul K. Stumpf Award for her ...

A scientific team from the Leibniz Institute for Zoo and Wildlife Research (Leibniz-IZW) and Leipzig University conducted a comparative analysis of lipid profiles of sperm to obtain insights into ...

For centuries arsenic has been synonymous with poison and peril. However, it is also ubiquitous in the Earth’s crust, and runoff from natural deposits and industrial processes has spread it throughout ...

We know very well that metabolites—small molecules such as lipids, sugars, nucleotides, and amino acids—play a large role in cellular biochemistry. But we are only beginning to understand the many ...

This project explores how a specific group of lipids, key membrane components and dynamic signaling molecules, shape cellular fate by regulating both senescence and cell death. Project is Not ...

Fructose aids tumour growth, but cancer cells usually lack the enzymes needed to metabolize this sugar. The liver converts dietary fructose to lipids that enter the blood, and cancer cells use the ...

The four helices conserved across the Lipocone superfamily constitute a cone-like structure, with the helices tending to coalesce on one end and open out into a pocket on the other, lined by the ...

Biochemistry is the study of the chemicals and chemistry of living organisms. Biochemists study biomolecules (such as proteins, RNA, DNA, sugars, and lipids), their applications and interactions in ...
