A newly developed luciferase-based reporter can detect problems in protein translocation and disulfide bond formation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Inspired by natural mechanisms found in ...
Cryo-EM structure of the Giardia ribosome reveals a highly compact, GC-rich rRNA with eukaryotic r-proteins. (A) Structure of the Giardia ribosome with all the r-proteins colored (SSU, shades of blue ...
Microbes from yeast to fungi are now routinely used to produce some ingredients more efficiently than plants or animals. But next-gen ‘cell-free’ processes that deploy some of the biomolecular ...
Complex protein interactions at synapses are essential for memory formation in our brains, but the mechanisms behind these processes remain poorly understood. Now, researchers have developed a ...
Learn how modified fluorescent proteins are evolving into quantum sensors, enhancing our understanding of cellular processes.
Studying tiny bits of genetic material that control protein formation in the brain, Johns Hopkins University scientists say they have new clues to how memories are made and how drugs might someday be ...
Age-related changes in protein tagging and degradation may help explain how the brain declines over time and why diet can still influence these processes.
