The team simulated a living cell at nanoscale resolution and recapitulated how every molecule within that cell behaved over the course of a full cell cycle. The work took many years: vast computer ...

The researchers, led by chemistry professor Zan Luthey-Schulten at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, present their findings in the journal Cell. In two videos, researchers describe the work ...

Simulating the complete life cycle of a minimal bacterial cell in 4D (space and time)—from DNA replication to protein translation to metabolism and cell division—at nanoscale resolution has ...

(Nanowerk News) By simulating the life cycle of a minimal bacterial cell — from DNA replication to protein translation to metabolism and cell division — scientists have opened a new frontier of ...

Rice is one of the world's most familiar staple foods, but how does a single cell develop into a rice plant with specialized ...
