Lack of oxygen delayed the rise of animals on Earth

14.11.2014   |   Newly on Gate2Biotech

Geologists are letting the air out of a nagging mystery about the development of animal life on Earth. Scientists have long speculated as to why animal species didn't flourish sooner, once sufficient oxygen covered the Earth's surface. Animals began to prosper at the end of the Proterozoic period, about 800 million years ago — but what about...

Molecular beacons shine light on how cells \'crawl\'

11.11.2014   |   Newly on Gate2Biotech

Adherent cells, the kind that form the architecture of all multi-cellular organisms, are mechanically engineered with precise forces that allow them to move around and stick to things. Proteins called integrin receptors act like little hands and feet to pull these cells across a surface or to anchor them in place. When groups of these cells are...

New research offers hope in treating sleeping sickness

10.11.2014   |   Newly on Gate2Biotech

In early drug dis­covery, you need a starting point, says North­eastern Uni­ver­sity asso­ciate pro­fessor of chem­istry and chem­ical biology Michael Pollastri. In a new research paper pub­lished Thursday in the journal PLOS-??Neglected Trop­ical Dis­eases, Pol­lastri and his col­leagues present hun­dreds of such starting points for poten­tially...
