She was also inspired in this post by reading so recently about HeLa cells, and how they allowed scientists to make great strides in the ...
Sweet! - Sugar Plays Key Role In Cell Division
Published February 7, 2010, 3:20 am, Medical News Today
Using an elaborate sleuthing system they developed to probe how cells manage their own division, Johns Hopkins scientists have discovered that common but hard-to-see sugar switches are partly in control. Because these previously unrecognized sugar switches are so abundant and potential targets of manipulation by drugs, the discovery of their role has implications for new treatments for a number ...
Nuclear Pore Complexes Harbor New Class Of Gene Regulators

Researchers at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, however, have shown that some of the pores' constituent proteins, called nucleoporins, pull double duty as transcription factors regulating the activity of genes active during early development. This ...
