Mutant Cyanobacterium Chonkus Could Help Combat Climate Change with Carbon Storage
Chonkus, a mutant strain of cyanobacterium, has been found to store more carbon and sink faster than typical strains. Discovered by Max Schubert and his team at the Wyss Institute, this microbe could assist in carbon sequestration efforts. Chonkus' quick sinking ability and high carbon storage capacity suggest it may play a role in reducing atmosph...

Stem Cell Protein May Help Find Blood Cancer Cure
According to the study, published in the journal Blood, inactivation of the tumour suppressor p53 is essential for unrestrained growth of cancers. But only 11 per cent of hematological malignancies have mutant p53

How Mutant Cells Turn Into Aggressive Cancers Discovered
Scientists have discovered how a gene mutation found in several human cancers - including leukaemia, gliomas and melanoma - promotes the growth of aggressive tumours, a finding that may help develop new treatment for the deadly diseases.
