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 ...

Researchers know that interfacial stress at the air-liquid interface contributes to protein particle formation and release into bulk product during the manufacturing of monoclonal antibodies and other ...

Transverse tubules (T-tubules) play a significant role in muscle contraction. However, the underlying mechanism of their ...

Proteins are among the most important molecular building blocks of life. They are chains of amino acids assembled in our cells by ribosomes, the molecular "protein factories" of our bodies. The ...

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 ...

Whenever you walk into a gym, you might see people holding shakers filled with whey protein. Whey protein is nothing but a ...

A UCLA-led research team has discovered a molecular switch that determines whether tiny blood vessels in premature infants' ...
