Biology — the science of life, living things and the processes that keep us all running — links up in essential ways with ...

Philip Kurian’s research reveals how biological systems process quantum information—billions of times faster than traditional ...

So why do so many life-forms breathe oxygen? There are probably thousands of kinds of metabolisms, or chemical processes that ...

Erwin Schrödinger, a theoretical physicist steeped in the philosophy of Schopenhauer and the Upanishads, delivered a series ...

On Earth, molecules like these are overwhelmingly produced by biological processes, but they can also occur naturally without life. However, non-biological processes usually only result in fatty ...

Scientists at Goethe University uncover how the oldest enzyme in cellular respiration functions – opening the door to potential CO₂ removal from exhaust emissions. Animals, plants, and many other livi ...

Chemists reveal method for differentiating PCET mechanisms – a key step for steering fundamental energy conversion and redox catalysis processes.Redox ...

Cell respiration enzyme isolated just a few years ago A conglomerate of different proteins known as the Rnf complex plays a key role in this process. These proteins are largely embedded inside the ...

The method combines single cell genomics and flow cytometry to quantify individual rates of respiration for different ... tend to rely on chemical processes other than respiring, or "breathing ...

“When the solid product is collected and used as fertiliser, nitrogen is slowly released, while also promoting root respiration and facilitating crop growth,” Shi said. “This process fully ...

“That would reshape our understanding of life’s distribution and the processes that lead to the origins of life.” Moving forward, the researchers plan to expand this work on other planetary ...
