A BioID proximity map of the proteome provides an ultra-detailed look at the organization of a human cell by defining the locations of 4,145 proteins.

Researchers from Sinai Health have published a study providing an ultra-detailed look at the organization of a living human cell, providing a new tool that can help scientists around the world better understand what happens during disease. The new study, published in the journal Nature, was conducted in the laboratory of Dr. Anne-Claude Gingras, a senior investigator at the Lunenfeld-Tanenbaum Research Institute and professor in the Department of Molecular Genetics at the University of Toronto.

Helfenbein) The primary function of the lung is to facilitate transfer of oxygen to the blood stream. Crucial to this lifegiving task are endothelial cells, which line blood vessels permeating the lung and through which gas exchange occurs. Malfunction of these cells is implicated in a range of different diseases, including COPD (chroni...

A reference map of endothelial cells in the lungs was created to help researchers identify specific abnormalities that occur in a host of lung diseases

 E-Mail The largest study of its type in the UK has identified differences in the immune response to COVID-19, between people with no symptoms, compared to those suffering a more serious reaction to the virus. Researchers from the Wellcome Sanger Institute, Newcastle University, University College London, University of Cambridge, EMBLs European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI) and their collaborators within the Human Cell Atlas initiative, found raised levels of specific immune cells in as...

News Article by the Communications Team 20 Apr 2021 Using data from the Human Cell Atlas, researchers have identified the differences in immune cells’ response in those who had no symptoms compared to severe symptoms. The largest study of its type in the UK has identified differences in the immune response to COVID-19, between people with no symptoms, compared to those suffering a more serious reaction to the virus. Researchers from the Wellcome Sanger Institut...

 E-Mail The fact that the human body is made up of cells is a basic, well-understood concept. Yet amazingly, scientists are still trying to determine the various types of cells that make up our organs and contribute to our health. A relatively recent technique called single-cell sequencing is enabling researchers to recognize and categorize cell types by characteristics such as which genes they express. But this type of research generates enormous amounts of data, with datasets of hundreds of ...

 E-Mail A new software tool allows researchers to quickly query datasets generated from single-cell sequencing. Users can identify which cell types any combination of genes are active in. Published in Nature Methods on 1st March, the open-access scfind software enables swift analysis of multiple datasets containing millions of cells by a wide range of users, on a standard computer. Processing times for such datasets are just a few seconds, saving time and computing costs. The tool, developed...

BobL SOMETHING TO KEEP IN MIND, FOR THOSE PLANNING ON MAKING A LAST STAND They have HUGE advantages over our side. For most people on our side, the ability to even comprehend who these people are simply doesn’t exist. I suspect that’s even the case here. The second advantage is that they take advantage of the freedoms we allow, including freedom of speech and the press. But once they take over, that all gets shut down. That’s why we USED TO infiltrate these groups, figure out...
