Clostridium perfringens α-toxin is the key virulence determinant in gas gangrene and has also been implicated in the pathogenesis of sudden death syndrome in young animals.

The structure of water can directly explain a unique set of inter- and intra-molecular forces, most of which stem from water's dipole moment, that result in a range of familiar properties.

Researchers have struggled to explain the molecular structure of proton exchange membranes, the key component in hydrogen fuel cells. Researchers have developed a model that explains how the ...

Molecular structure of tuberculosis efflux pump reveals how bacteria resist key antibiotic by Jeff Hansen, University of Alabama at Birmingham edited by Sadie Harley, reviewed by Robert Egan ...

Researchers at Columbia University Medical Center have uncovered the complex structure of a protein that serves as a central energy gauge for cells, providing crucial details about the molecule ...

image: This view of the molecular structure of the MOF shows the triangular channels that run through the material. The walls of these channels trap the lower-octane components of gas while ...

A quiet, glowing gas cloud has been hiding in plain sight not far from Earth. For decades, astronomers have predicted that some of the galaxy’s molecular gas — the fuel for star birth — might be ...

Researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have developed a supramolecular-scale artificial motor powered by a chemical fuel to deliver rotational motion. This is the first time this ...

This catalyst combines photosystem I (PSI) with platinum nanoparticles and has the potential to revolutionize clean energy production by efficiently generating hydrogen fuel.
