Researchers have found a way to control protein levels inside different tissues of a whole, living animal for the first time.
Recently identified and long-lasting type of protein misfolding — non-native entanglements — observed in all-atom protein folding simulations. Representative misfolded conformations of the small ...
From viruses to humans, life makes microproteins that have evaded discovery until now. By Carl Zimmer You could be forgiven for assuming that scientists know how many kinds of proteins exist. After ...
Researchers at the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center have identified a small molecule that can inhibit a cancer-driving protein long considered impossible to target with drugs—a ...
Molecular glues are revolutionizing cancer therapy by targeting undruggable proteins for degradation, enhancing precision medicine and drug discovery.
Inside cells, RNAs and proteins form tiny, liquid-like droplets called biomolecular condensates. These droplets are essential for organizing cellular life, yet why some RNAs cluster more readily than ...
Sweet proteins can provide benefits that other sweeteners can’t, and without some of the drawbacks they provide. But how can they be produced? Sweetness is a tricky business. Sugar has been linked to ...
