Covalent chemical probes – chemical probes that form a covalent bond with their target biomacromolecule(s) represent powerful tools that can be used for biology discovery, target validation (or ...
This attraction pulls the atoms together and the electrons are shared by both atoms. The atoms bond because there is a strong enough attraction in both directions and room for the electrons in the ...
Students look more deeply into the structure of the atom and play a game to better understand the relationship between protons, neutrons, electrons, and energy levels in atoms and their location in ...
Silica has a giant covalent structure containing silicon atoms (grey) and oxygen atoms (red) Learn more on properties of giant covalent compounds in this podcast. Listen to the full series on BBC ...
Helical structures are ubiquitous across biology, from the double-stranded helix of DNA to how heart muscle cells spiral in a band. Inspired by this twisty ladder, researchers from Hiroshima ...
