L-arginine helps protein droplets stay stable and prevents fibril formation linked to Alzheimer’s. This process occurs at droplet surfaces, offering a potential therapeutic target.

A novel study uncovers how a subtle chemical tweak transforms the naturally occurring phytotoxin into a powerful molecular glue, 12-deoxyfusicoccin (12-dFC), that locks 14-3-3 proteins onto the ...

Scientists have identified proteins from common soil fungi that can initiate ice crystal formation in clouds at relatively ...

The discovery of ribosomes dates back to the 1950s, when George Palade first observed dense particles in the cytoplasm of cells using electron microscopy. These particles were later named "ribosomes" ...

To ensure that protein production in our cells runs smoothly, the protein complex NAC slows down the rate of protein synthesis right at the start. An international research team with significant ...

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 ...

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

Interfacial stress analysis is an important step when evaluating the ability of various polysorbates (PS) to mitigate formation of subvisible and visible protein particles at the air/water interface ...

So how does protein synthesis make hair? If you've looked at the activity (or even the text version of the activity), you know how a section of DNA instructs a cell how to make a protein. Actually, ...
