There are an estimated 20,000 to 30,000 proteins at work in cells, where they carry out numerable functions, says computational molecular biologist Roman Sloutsky at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. “One of the central questions in all of biochemistry and molecular biology,” he adds, is how their precisely-tuned functions are determined.

A new study, published in Science, which focuses on mapping biodiversity change in marine and land ecosystems shows that loss of biodiversity is most prevalent in the tropic, with changes in marine ecosystems outpacing those on land.

Global airborne mission finds a belt of particle formation is brightening clouds.

NASA’s Precipitation Measurement Missions (PMM) have collected rain and snowfall from space for nearly 20 years, and for the first time in 2019, scientists can access PMM’s entire record as one data set.

Distribution, number, source, and movement of the microparticles in the environment has remained poorly understood.
