A new method developed at Baylor College of Medicine and collaborating institutions allows researchers to better understand ...

Proteins are essential molecules in living systems. They move, interact and organize themselves to carry out a wide range of ...

As far as research subjects go, it's not always easy to find common ground with a single-celled bacterium. Yet the more Paul Wiggins studies his model bacteria, Acinetobacter baylyi, the more he sees ...

Kirill Alexandrov Artificial intelligence–designed “smart” proteins can be programmed to turn on when they detect a certain ...

Scientists have uncovered a novel mechanism through which skin cells organize and control protein production during ...

Protein arginylation is an evolutionarily conserved post‐translational modification whereby arginine is covalently attached to specific residues on target proteins. Mediated principally by the enzyme ...

Protein droplets serve important biological functions within cells, but in neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, these ...

Lysosomes are the control centers for the metabolism of cells and tissues, including the brain. They break down defective proteins and other macromolecules into their basic building blocks. At the ...

Schematic diagram showing how the PolyTAC antibody zeroes in on a specific biomarker, which then directs the polymer to form an indent in the cell membrane at the exact location of the target protein.

How does blood age? A new study identifies the MLKL protein as a non-lethal driver of hematopoietic stem cell aging via ...

Scientists link a rising brain protein to memory decline and show it can be reversed in mice, offering a new target for ...
