Celery, a key vegetable in the Apiaceae family, is widely valued for its nutrition and medicinal uses. It is commonly categorized into three varieties: A. graveolens var. dulce (common celery ...

Ancient viral DNA embedded in the human genome has been linked to the genetic risks of certain neurodegenerative diseases, ...

Biology has yet to tap into the full benefits of computer simulations, but a new AI foundation model developed by a team of scientists including CMU's Eric Xing hopes to change that.

Frizzled (FZD) proteins are the principal receptors of the Wnt signaling pathway. However, whether Wnt ligands induce FZD endocytosis and degradation remains elusive. The transmembrane E3 ubiquitin ...
