Researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have built a computer simulation that tracks the entire life cycle ...
By simulating the life cycle of a minimal bacterial cell—from DNA replication to protein translation to metabolism and cell ...
In a landmark simulation, scientists have recreated the full cell cycle of a living cell in four dimensions — three dimensions plus time. Using a highly detailed digital model of a minimal synthetic ...
Inside the human airway, a certain cell type reigns supreme: multiciliated cells, decorated with dozens of hair-like cilia all beating in tandem. These cells are responsible for clearing out foreign ...
A remarkably small bacterium containing fewer than 500 genes serves as the basis for one of the most detailed digital life ...
To model bacterial life, Thornburg and his colleagues turned to one of its simplest examples: a bacterial cell with a ...
A metabolic enzyme studied for over seven decades has a hidden second function—it can unwind RNA and promote cell cycle progression, an additional function beyond its role in energy production, ...
