Key differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic RNA silencing Argonaute enzyme unveiled Date: February 25, 2019 Source: Hong Kong University of Science and Technology Summary: The Argonaute ...

Typical prokaryotic (left) and eukaryotic (right) cells In prokaryotes, the DNA (chromosome) is in contact with the cellular cytoplasm and is not in a housed membrane-bound nucleus.

The researchers investigate a range of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell types to determine a) how cell volume in prokaryotes can eventually act to constrain a cell's membrane surface area required ...

A new study, which appears in the current issue of the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution, challenges a popular scenario put forward to explain the arrival of the first eukaryotic organisms.

Since translation mechanisms are conserved, researchers began to wonder if a similar phenomenon could be seen in the cells of eukaryotic organisms, such as plants, fungi, and animals.
