To ensure that protein production in our cells runs smoothly, the protein complex NAC slows down the rate of protein ...

Proteins are among the most important molecular building blocks of life. They are chains of amino acids assembled in our cells by ribosomes, the molecular "protein factories" of our bodies. The ...

The difficulty with folding fitted sheets lies in their design. This type of bedding has a stretchy, elastic edge and curved ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich recently explained the role of a molecular complex that orchestrates the production of proteins in ...

SEOUL, Dec 2 (Reuters) - Samsung Electronics (005930.KS), opens new tab unveiled on Tuesday its first multi-folding smartphone, in a bid to strengthen its position in a sector of the phone market ...

Scientists at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and collaborators at Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) and Columbia University report they have achieved a milestone in biological computing: ...

Associate Professor Celia Reina, senior author of three recent papers developing a mathematical "Rosetta Stone" that translates microscopic movements into predictions of large-scale behaviors like ...

Just as a misshapen key can't open a lock, the proteins in our cells need to have the correct 3D shape to function properly. And defects in a protein's structure can cause diseases. Proteins are ...

Much has changed since Consumer Reports first tested protein powders and shakes. Over the past 15 years, Americans’ obsession with protein has transformed what had been a niche product into the ...

Cellular membrane proteins play important roles in cellular transport, signaling, and cell-to-cell communication. Malfunction in membrane proteins can lead to serious diseases, such as cancer. However ...

A GIF showing a protein mimicking IL-2 binding to IL-2 receptors, then changing shape in response to an effector molecule, which forces it off of one of the receptors. A protein mimicking IL-2 called ...
