Scientists have developed an AI tool that creates detailed models of cellular metabolism, making it easier to understand how cells function. Understanding how cells process nutrients and produce ...

In living organisms, the cell membrane plays a crucial role. It’s not just a protective barrier—it also senses the environment, helps transport molecules, and allows cells to adapt and change. This ...

This image illustrates the chemical structure of a purine molecule, highlighting the numbering of the carbon and nitrogen atoms. The purine structure consists of a pyrimidine ring (positions 1 to 6) ...

Understanding how cells process nutrients and produce energy - collectively known as metabolism - is essential in biology. However, analyzing the vast amounts of data on cellular processes to ...

3D electron tomography reveals glycogen particles (purple) clustered on the surface of lipid droplets (yellow), closely associated with endoplasmic reticulum membranes (blue) and mitochondria (red), ...

A growing body of work suggests that cell metabolism — the chemical reactions that provide energy and building materials — plays a vital, overlooked role in the first steps of life. Each of us starts ...

Researchers are able to test in parallel the effects of over 1500 active substances on cell metabolism. Their analysis also led to the discovery of previously unknown mechanisms for known medications.

A team of researchers at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL) has now created an AI-based tool named RENAISSANCE, which they say simplifies the creation of kinetic models.
