For more than two decades, the International Space Station has provided a platform for growing and studying protein crystals. In the early days of microgravity research, scientists discovered that ...

Scientists at Tokyo Tech have developed a new cell-free protein crystallization (CFPC) method that is expected to advance research in structural biology. The technique will enable the analysis of ...

A quick, purification-free method was developed by researchers at Institute of Science Tokyo, to capture the detailed 3D structures of flexible sugar molecules. By growing crystals of galectin-10 ...

The new cell-free protein crystallization (CFPC) method developed by Tokyo Tech includes direct protein crystallization and is a major headway in the field of structural biology. This technique will ...

Quantum physics is no longer confined to cryogenic chips and vacuum chambers. It is starting to seep into the machinery of ...
