Chloroplasts—the "light power plants" of plant cells—are increasingly the focus of synthetic biology. These organelles house ...
A joint research team has discovered a new molecular switch that determines when plant leaves begin to age. The research team has identified for the first time a new mechanism in which RNA made from ...

More than a billion years ago a hungry cell devoured a tiny blue-green alga. But instead of the former simply digesting the latter, the duo struck a remarkable evolutionary deal. Now scientists are ...
Light-dependent chloroplast movements function to optimize light absorption in photosynthetic cells. Under high light intensity chloroplasts migrate to the anticlinal sides of leaf cells and in low ...
At long last, National Institutes of Health (NIH) principal deputy director Lawrence Tabak admitted to Congress Thursday that US taxpayers funded gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of ...
