These studies showed both similarities and differences between the eukaryotic PUFA synthase pathways and those well studied in prokaryotes. For example, eukaryotic PUFA synthases contain the same ...

Eukaryotic microorganisms were the key components of marine microecosystems and were involved in biogeochemical cycling processes. Although oceanographers have emphasized their importance in open ...

This distance is significant because membrane contacts for interorganelle communication in eukaryotic cells form connections from 10-80 nanometers wide. The researchers ruled out that what they ...

Bone-marrow-derived multipotent progenitor stromal cells — or mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) — are the common predecessors of cells of the mesenchymal lineage, such as bone, cartilage and fat ...

Insect short PGRPs are present in the haemolymph, cuticle, fat body cells and gut ... in antimicrobial defence and are homologous to the prokaryotic peptidoglycan-lytic type 2 amidases.

Now that my daughter is 13, I've had time to reflect on our decision, the lessons we learned, and what worked for us. She knew a cell phone was not just a toy When COVID hit and online schooling ...
