A research team at Florida State University's Institute of Molecular Biophysics and Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry ...

With the help of artificial intelligence, an international team of researchers has made the first major inroad to date toward ...

Biochemistry is the study of the chemicals and chemistry of living organisms. Biochemists study biomolecules (such as proteins, RNA, DNA, sugars, and lipids), their applications and interactions in ...

Proteins and peptides form the cornerstone of cellular function, serving not only as essential catalysts and structural components but also as mediators of signalling and regulation in health and ...

Scientists discovered that the protein RPA plays a critical and previously unconfirmed role in stimulating telomerase to ...

Proteins are essential macromolecules that play a crucial role in virtually all biological processes. They are the building blocks of life, performing a wide range of functions within organisms, from ...

They build our bodies and orchestrate the molecular processes in cells that keep them healthy. They also present a wealth of targets for new medications. From everyday pain relievers to sophisticated ...

Neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease or Parkinson's disease are caused by folding errors (misfolding) in proteins or peptides, i.e. by changes in their spatial structure. This is the ...

Proteins are bio-macromolecules with a range of functionalities as a result of complex higher-order structures. As the end product of the “central dogma” in biology, proteins are considered the key ...

Host cells that are modified to express therapeutic proteins are the foundation of the biopharmaceutical industry. However, these cells also express proteins other than the ones they’re supposed to ...

Sometimes, life can be a real drag—especially if you’re a protein weighed down by unwanted baggage. Researchers have unveiled evidence that these ponderous proteins could be involved in a range of ...
