This new article publication from Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B, discusses how ALS-linked C9orf72 dipeptide repeats inhibit starvation-induced autophagy through modulating BCL2–BECN1 interaction.

How do expanded hexanucleotide repeats in the C9ORF72 gene cause amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia? They give rise to aberrant dipeptide repeat proteins, but even though these ...

New research published in EPJ D combines mass spectroscopy with a range of other simulation and analytical techniques, allowing researchers to distinguish between two chiral forms of a dipeptide ...
