The ORNL study confirms that these imperfections do not disturb the atomic vibrations within the graphite, which are ...

A remarkable study led by Oak Ridge National Laboratory answers a decades-old question in nuclear science: Do tiny pores in ...

This valuable study examines the cleavage of motor neuron nucleoporins by proteases 2A and 3C of enterovirus D68, a pathogen associated with acute flaccid myelitis. The evidence supporting the effects ...

Plasmodesmata are channels that allow cell-cell communication in plants; based on the functional similarities between facilitated transport within plasmodesmata and into the nucleus, the authors ...

Up to 10 to 20% of the proteome contains regions with much lower amino acid diversity than would be expected by chance. This year’s Lasker Basic Science Award is given to Steven McKnight and Dirk ...

An independent taskforce has called for "radical, once-in-a-generation" reform of the UK's nuclear regulatory system in order to remove regulatory barriers to new nuclear projects. The taskforce said ...

Background: Nucleoporin 188 (NUP188) is a vital component of the nuclear pore complex that regulates cancer progression, but its role in diagnosis, prognosis, and immunoregulation in pan-cancer ...

Fermi America’s plans for a massive energy and data complex in Texas powered by 11 GW of nuclear, natural gas and solar are set to be boosted by favorable federal and state policies and surging power ...

Yra1p and Sub2p are components of the TREX complex, which couples transcription elongation with nuclear export of mRNAs. Here, we report a genetic interaction between Yra1p and a conserved protein ...

Every military submarine operated by the United States Navy is nuclear-powered, and this has many advantages as well as some disadvantages. The advantages are clear in that a nuclear sub can typically ...
