A new artificial enzyme has shown it can chew through lignin, the tough polymer that helps woody plants hold their shape. Lignin also stores tremendous potential for renewable energy and materials.Re… [+5659 chars]
A treasure trove of data is set to answer some big questions about our galaxy. The data, compiled by the European Space Agency's Gaia mission, contains an unprecedented amount of information about … [+10933 chars]
Many disease-causing bacteria are able to inhibit the defense mechanisms in plants and thus escape dissolution by the plant cell, a process known as xenophagy. Animal and human cells have a similar m… [+3470 chars]
Astronomers had made the first X-ray observation of a white-dwarf star already alive when it released the companion star. The process caused thermonuclear evaporation that caused a significant explos… [+3288 chars]
Dr. Nishikawa at Osaka Metropolitan University focused on the Kondo effect on minimal ferrimagnetism and attempted to elucidate it theoretically. As a result, they found that the Kondo effect occurre… [+3130 chars]
