An infection with the hepatitis B virus (HBV), which is spread by blood or bodily fluids, is one of the main causes of ...

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) has a narrow host range, mainly infecting hominoids. A new study reveals the structural differences in the liver cell receptor (NTCP) between humans and monkeys, explaining why ...

This work will be of high interest to a broad swathe of scientists studying native macromolecules present at low concentrations in cells. Cryo-EM single-particle analyses typically require target ...

THOSE who contributed to the recent Faraday Discussion on molecular spectra and molecular structure have now sent their written versions to the secretary for publication. Instead of the report we ...

Chemical engineers are problem solvers - they bring new medicines to market, develop alternative fuels, keep food manufacturing safe, and create new manufacturing materials. They move small-scale ...

Take an assembled bicyclic molecule, which in its simplest form, norbornene, might look like the number eight on a digital clock face. It's possible to insert a carbon atom in the center of the ...

Chemical engineering was first taught at OU in 1912, making OU one of the oldest in the country, granting the first graduate degree in 1918. Over the years that followed, the program has developed ...

Using cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), we have determined the structure of human VASH1-SVBP bound to microtubules ... Interfaces 1 and 2 are between VASH1 and the globular domain of the α-tubulin ...

By using three broad types of measurements—working capital, asset performance, and capital structure—you may evaluate the strength of a company's balance sheet and, thus, its investment quality.
