Peptides Can Form Without Amino Acids

PHYSICS & MATH The results of the study may also be useful to the field of synthetic chemistry, as amide bond formation is essential for many commercially critical synthetic materials, bioactive compounds, and pharmaceuticals

A Unique Way to Make Complex Structures in Thin Films

The new technique had two different, inconsistent patterns with one forming a set of posts or lines etched on a substrate material, and the other is an inherent pattern that is created by the self-assembling copolymer

Black (Nano) Gold Combat Climate Change

By utilizing the methods of nanotechnology, the researchers transformed golden gold to black gold by changing the size and gaps between gold nanoparticles

A Unique Tool for Live-Cell Imaging

The biomolecules human immune systems deploy to find, tag, and destroy invading pathogens are the antibodies. Their work includes binding to specific targets, called epitopes, on the surfaces of antigens, like locks to keys. Scientists have, for so many years, exploited this selective tagging mechanism in natural antibodies to engineer antibody-based probes that let them purify and study different types of proteins within cells.

Synthesizing Chemical-Sensing Cells from Scratch

Researchers have discovered a way to make artificial cells interact with a wide range of chemicals It might be hard for so many to bake a cake from scratch, and another far-reaching story is constructing an artificial cell-like system from scratch.

Dogs Know Whether or Not to Trust Humans, Says Science

This experiment either proves that dogs can spot a liar or that dogs have major trust issues. Dogs can smell fear, but can they sniff out the truth? Your dog might actually be smarter than you're giving it credit for.
