4Biology is a focused search engine built for biology students, researchers, educators, and lab managers. We combine multiple indexes, curated sources, and AI tools to surface publications, protocols, datasets, suppliers, and learning resources that matter to life scientists. Use the site to save time, find specialized resources, and get context-specific search results not optimized for general web traffic. Part of the 4SEARCH network of topic specific search engines.
Newswise — COLUMBUS, Ohio – A genome contains all of the DNA of every living organism, but its contents don’t stop there – most of these structures also contain snippets of DNA that can copy and paste themselves to “infect” a genome, expanding its size. Precisely why that happens remains…

Cyclophilins are a family of protein chaperones and signaling molecules found in every domain of life. In humans, they play key roles in numerous signaling pathways and contribute to several ... Other ways to search: How…
Texas A&M AgriLife Research scientists used the AI tool AlphaFold-Multimer to identify nearly 2,900 likely mitochondrial protein interactions, revealing potential disease targets and biological functions for uncharacterized proteins.
Last verified: 5 November 2026. A vault is a large, hollow, barrel-shaped protein shell found across most of the eukaryotic tree, from slime moulds to humans. Leonard Rome and Nancy Kedersha discovered them in 1986, and the…
Controlling gene expression is essential to growth, development, and sustained life. This requires regulating the spacial, temporal, and developmental expression of genes in a wide diversity of cell types. Our research program…
A researcher examines cultured tissue in this illustrative laboratory scene. Scientists grew human lens organoids that reproduce key features of the eye’s lens, offering a new model for cataract research. (CREDIT: The Brighter Side of News) Tiny clusters of human cells have developed several features that help an eye lens…
