Using ribosome engineering (RE), researchers from Shinshu University introduced mutations affecting the protein synthesis ...

Every cell depends on proteins to function and stay healthy. These proteins are made inside the cell from amino acids, but cannot simply accumulate inside the cell forever. Once they have done their ...

Animal proteins are complete proteins, so they contain all nine essential amino acids. Plant-based proteins can support muscle gain if you consume them in larger doses or combine them with other ...

Researchers demonstrated how amino acids could spontaneously attach to RNA under early Earth-like conditions using thioesters, providing a long-sought clue to the origins of protein synthesis. This ...

In a surprising discovery, University of New Mexico researchers have found that OTULIN – an enzyme that helps regulate the immune system – also drives ...
