According to scientists, the world is split into two kinds of organisms — prokaryotic vs. eukaryotic — which have two ...

Planctomycetes challenge our concept of the bacterial cell and of a prokaryote as a cell structure type, as well as our ideas about origins of the eukaryote nucleus. Planctomycetes Are Important ...

In addition to the nucleus, eukaryotic cells may contain several other types of organelles, which may include mitochondria, chloroplasts, the endoplasmic reticulum, the Golgi apparatus ...

Research from the University of Jena reveals that certain prokaryotes, specifically planctomycetes, can consume other cells, contradicting previous beliefs that only eukaryotes could perform ...

Living organisms are made up of two kinds of cells—prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Prokaryotes are single-celled organisms that lack a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles within the cell ...

Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have revealed how Fanzor2's divergence from bacterial ancestors may make ...

Genetic material DNA in a nucleus, plasmids are found in a few simple eukaryotic organisms. DNA is a single molecule, found free in the cytoplasm; additional DNA is found on one or more rings ...

Vast numbers of different prokaryotic microorganisms shape the biosphere, with diverse metabolic capabilities. Determination of genome sequences for a wide range of bacteria and archaea now requires ...

October 1, 2024) A revolution in biomedicine is currently underway, driven by the application of genome engineering tools such as ...

During an August expedition, the team discovered around 40 of these features, which are believed to be sinkholes.

Scientists at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital revealed how Fanzor2’s divergence from bacterial ancestors may make it a ...

Elizabeth Kellogg, PhD, St. Jude Department of Structural Biology, used cryo-EM to study the evolutionary journey of Fanzor2, a compact eukaryotic genome-editing protein with huge potential.
