Transposable Elements Drive the Birth of Vast Satellite DNA Repertoires in
26+ min ago (597+ words) The genomes of true frogs have long puzzled geneticists. Amphibians are famous for carrying some of the largest and most repetitive genomes among vertebrates, and yet the detailed architecture of their repetitive DNA has remained poorly explored compared with mammals,…...
Enzymes and Fermentation Team Up to Strip Bad Flavors from Mealworm Protein
9+ hour, 39+ min ago (675+ words) Edible insects have been heralded as one of the most sustainable protein sources on the planet, but there has always been an awkward catch: many people simply do not like the way they smell or taste....
How can deep-sea organisms survive under extreme pressure?
2+ day, 11+ hour ago (180+ words) A research team, led by Professor Gaku Fukuhara of Kyushu University’s Institute for Materials Chemistry and Engineering (IMCE), investigated this biological phenomenon. They focused on PoXeR, a protein from a deep-sea bacterium. Using a custom-built apparatus, they subjected the protein…...

Under pressure: How a deep-sea protein adapts to an extreme environment
2+ day, 13+ hour ago (510+ words) Researchers uncover the molecular strategy that enables PoXeR, a light-driven protein found in deep-sea microorganisms, to adapt to extreme pressure A research team, led by Professor Gaku Fukuhara of Kyushu University’s Institute for Materials Chemistry and Engineering (IMCE), investigated this…...
Dead or alive, plankton support marine ecosystems
2+ day, 18+ hour ago (185+ words) Activity Database on Education and Research However, assessing the death of a particular plankton population out of a community consisting of hundreds of coexisting species poses a complex challenge. A team of researchers at Kyoto University addressed this by focusing…...
Nearly Destroyed DNA Reveals Two Extinct Giant Tortoise Lineages
3+ day, 2+ hour ago (119+ words) Using a new computational toolkit, Yale researchers recovered evolutionary clues from highly degraded DNA and identified two extinct lineages of giant tortoises....
Ukrainian polar explorers showed off huge snow donuts
3+ day, 6+ hour ago (394+ words) In reality, these aren’t just lumps of snow. Such formations consist of several layers that twist around one another. The snow inside often remains loose, so over time, some of it may simply blow out. Because of this, a hole…...
A jellyfish smaller than a fingernail can reverse aging, but its strange reset trick is not the immortality people imagine
3+ day, 9+ hour ago (660+ words) Home - Science - A jellyfish smaller than a fingernail can reverse aging, but its strange reset trick is not the immortality people imagine Let’s do an exercise: try and picture an animal that is smaller than your pinky fingernail. Now imagine…...
Museum für Naturkunde Berlin: 100 Years of the Society for Mammalogy: from field observation to genome analysis
3+ day, 16+ hour ago (273+ words) Research in the museum The museum’s development into the 21st century Wednesday, 09. September 2026 / 13:02 Over the past 100 years, mammalogy has undergone a fundamental transformation: what was once a predominantly descriptive discipline has evolved into a state-of-the-art interdisciplinary field of research, the findings…...
