Outbreaking news:
In Standford, they have found protein called Hsp70, which helps protein to fold correctly and make the quality control to function the cells. By using of Hsp70, researchers were able to prevent the Zika virus replication, reported in Cell Reports.

Most of us are fond of Pizza where they sprinkle yeast (mushroom) on top of it. While comparing bacteria and fungi, fungi are easy can be seen, because they are found in colonies. A single drop of water has numerous numbers of tiny particles, micro-organisms. When we look a drop of water, as we see a clear solution but while seeing under a microscope, we can find unique, diverse micro-organisms. It is no
