How Algae Survive In Salty Water
Even algae use abscisic acid to regulate their response to salt stress, scientists find.
Pluripotency Factor Actually A Telomere Enlongator
Zscan4, originally believed to be involved in pluripotency of stem cells, is actually triggered by shortened telomeres to regenerate the telomere length.
Touchpoints Of The Chromosome Scaffold
Condensin, a protein complex that acts as a scaffold to protect DNA during cell division, also play a protective role in response to heat stress.
Mutation In CHEK2 Linked To Breast Cancer In Chinese Women
Mutations in CHEK2, rather than the more well-known BRCA genes, are more common in Chinese breast cancer patients.
