A team of Chinese scientists has recently developed two novel compounds that inhibit the SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro) and one of them is a good drug candidate for further clinical studies. The ...

At Bar-Ilan University, Yaron Shav-Tal, Ph.D., and colleagues have combined fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) and fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) to track mRNA as it ...

Necroptosis is a form of regulated cell death (RCD) similar to apoptosis, the most commonly studied type of RCD. In contrast to apoptosis, plasma membrane rupture in necroptotic cells occurs at early ...

Polyprolines of different lengths, relatively stiff polypeptides, served as intramolecular “nanometer rulers” to demonstrate the highest MINFLUX resolutions in the Förster resonance energy transfer ...

The researchers have now published their results in the journal Science ("Direct optical measuerement of intramolecular distances with angstrom precision"). What does it look like in the nanocosmos of ...
