The origins of life remain a major mystery. How were complex molecules able to form and remain intact for prolonged periods without disintegrating? A team at ORIGINS, a Munich-based Cluster of ...

Bacterial enzymes hijacked to create complex molecules normally made by plants Date: August 13, 2020 Source: Scripps Research Institute Summary: Chemists have efficiently created three families of ...

In biology, folded proteins are responsible for most advanced functions. These complex proteins are the result of evolution or design by scientists. Now, a team of scientists led by University of ...

A resonance effect can significantly affect how a three-atom molecule cools down when excited, RIKEN physicists have found.

Astronomers have identified the largest organic molecule yet in a planet-forming disk of gas around a young star, a precursor to complex organic molecules that can lead to the emergence of life.

Manipulating complex molecules by hand Date: November 6, 2014 Source: Forschungszentrum Juelich Summary: Scientists have developed a new control technique for scanning probe microscopes that ...

The young star in question is known as ST11, and it was recently observed by the ALMA radio telescope array. ALMA is particularly suited to observe complex molecules in space, because it is able ...

Complex molecules are used in everything from cell research to semiconductor development, but they are difficult and time-consuming to produce. Now researchers from the University of Illinois have ...

Cells are incredibly adept at creating complex molecules, like therapeutics, and can do so much better than many of our best factories. Synthetic biologists look to re-engineer cells to make these ...

Our solar system may not be as special as we thought. A new study of a young star’s protoplanetary disk finds the same kinds of complex organic molecules that are found on the comets in our own ...

In biology, folded proteins are responsible for most advanced functions. These complex proteins are the result of evolution or design by scientists. Now, a team of scientists led by University of G… ...
