Protein synthesis is vital for life, translating genetic information from DNA to functional proteins through transcription ...

This technique and the findings, published in Cell, provide insights into how proteins are made and offer other researchers a tool to better study mRNA translation. Researchers from the Tanenbaum ...

Our guts are home to trillions of bacteria, and research over the last few decades has established how essential they are to ...

are among the most difficult and exciting problems in cell biology.Three recent studies have made a significant contribution to this area byidentifying new proteins, called LAP proteins ...

“And that’s what this year’s laureates have done.” Proteins are the building blocks of life. They are made up of strings of amino acid molecules which fold themselves into complex three-dimensional ...

The human genome encodes potentially thousands of tiny proteins that were previously overlooked. The search is on to find out ...

These proteins are made up of three structural elements: helices embedded inside the membrane, loops connecting these helices, and tails—protein "thread ends" found at the beginning of the first ...

Researchers from the Tanenbaum group at the Hubrecht Institute have developed a new microscopy technique to observe how ribosomes function in cells.

MammalExpress increases the efficiency and reduces the cost of producing recombinant proteins in mammalian cells. Recombinant proteins are proteins produced by genetic engineering. They are widely ...
