Astronomers have identified the largest organic molecule yet in a planet-forming disk of gas around a young star, a precursor to complex organic molecules that can lead to the emergence of life.

The molecule 2-methoxyethanol could reveal how the cosmos grew so complex. Scientists have discovered a hitherto unknown space molecule while investigating a relatively nearby region of intense ...

New research shows how a simple molecule called ortho-benzyne helps form more complex organic molecules deep inside a frigid gas cloud. The team says it plays a small but critical role in creating ...

Using process diagram notations, the signal transduction pathway in Figure 1a would be written as shown in Figure 1b.There are several notable differences from conventional diagrams. First, unlike ...

Astronomers discover largest molecule yet in a planet-forming disc Date: March 8, 2022 Source: ESO Summary: Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) in Chile, researchers have ...

The molecule could be a precursor to large organic molecules, potentially leading to the formation of some form of life. The researchers detailed their findings in a study published Tuesday in ...

Astronomers have discovered a complex molecule in a star-forming region known as the Cat’s Paw Nebula. The molecule in question is 2-methoxyethanol which on Earth is a pretty toxic chemical ...

Chemists found a way to identify a complex sugar molecule in the cell walls of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the world's deadliest pathogen. This labeling could lead to simpler, faster TB tests.
