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 ...

Researchers have revealed how bacteria precisely control the genes that trigger cell division. The study shows that the MraZ protein, which normally forms a donut-shaped structure, must bend and ...

Chemists from ETH Zurich have found a way to produce poorly soluble proteins by caging a uniquely reactive boron compound.

Efforts to unlock the mysteries of proteins, building blocks of life, have earned three scientists the 2024 Nobel Prize in chemistry. The prize goes to David Baker “for computational protein design,” ...

Biotech advances from UT’s new Deep Proteins group are changing the game with help from artificial intelligence. Researchers study the three dimensional structures of molecules on a wall-sized video ...

Researchers found that tubulin can guide Tau and alpha synuclein toward healthy roles in neurons instead of forming toxic aggregates. The findings suggest boosting tubulin levels may help protect ...

A test measuring proteins in spinal fluid may help support the diagnosis of MS, especially in patients whose disease is harder to diagnose.
