In the process of protein synthesis there is a “stochastic” component, i.e., involving random chance, which influences the time the process takes. This aspect has been investigated by two research ...

New structures discovered within cilia show a relationship between certain proteins and juvenile myoclonic epilepsy. The discovery sheds new light on the microstructure of cilia. Cilia are microscopic ...

Although naturally occurring proteins form stable defined tertiary structures, it is well known that many proteins with non-natural sequences have unstructured conformations 1,2. This suggests that ...

Journal of Experimental Botany, Vol. 50, No. 331 (FEBRUARY 1999), pp. 165-174 (10 pages) Vacuolar proteins are synthesized and translocated into the endoplasmic reticulum and transported to the ...

Using termite and cockroach genomes, researchers built phylogenetic trees from transposons, paving a new way to differentiate ...

What makes prions adopt toxic, self-perpetuating conformations? The question has baffled researchers for years. In the May 9 Nature online, Peter Tessier and Susan Lindquist from Boston’s Whitehead ...

The promoters of the Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) cytochrome c genes, Cytc-1 and Cytc-2, were analyzed using plants transformed with fusions to the β-glucuronidase coding sequence. Histochemical ...
