Proteins are fundamental biomolecules that perform a broad range of vital functions within the human body. They serve as an essential structural and functional component of cells, tissues and organs ...

Recent research sheds light on how changes in the chemical structure of a protein called Interleukin-6 affect lung cancer’s ...

Complex protein interactions at synapses are essential for memory formation in our brains, but the mechanisms behind these processes remain poorly understood. Now, researchers have developed a ...

A team from Fujita Health University developed a computational model to simulate the formation of protein condensates at ...

University of Iowa-led study has revealed the unexpected structure adopted by the DNA repair protein RAD52 as it binds and protects ... professor of biochemistry and molecular biology in the UI Carver ...

To capture the three-dimensional structure of RBP3, the researchers used cryo ... Additional information on the plasticity of ...

Why do problems occur with a special variant of 'protein glues', the split inteins, that severely limit their use in producing proteins? A team has now answered this question.

Proteins are the building blocks of life. They consist of folded peptide chains, which in turn are made up of a series of amino acids. From stabilizing cell structure to catalyzing chemical reactions, ...

A team developed the catGRANULE 2.0 ROBOT, a machine-learning algorithm to predict protein behavior linked to neurodegenerative diseases like ALS, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. The algorithm identifies ...
