The amino acid sequence of a protein encodes its three-dimensional structure and determines its biological function. Although researchers can readily generate proteins with altered amino acid ...

Every protein in the body is encased in a water shell that directs protein structure, provides vital stability and steers ...

A University of California, Riverside-led team has made an advance in the basic understanding of Plasmodium falciparum, the ...

Two key protein structures in the body are being visualized for the first time, thanks in part to the latest technology — ...

Every protein in the body is encased in a water shell that directs protein structure, provides vital stability and steers function. Because of this, water molecules represent a powerful but largely ...

We compute amino acid sequences predicted to fold into proteins with new structures and functions, produce synthetic genes encoding these sequences, and characterize them experimentally. I will ...

Nanoparticles (NPs), materials with sizes ranging from 10 to 1,000 nm, are increasingly utilized as drug-delivery systems and ...

It has been known for several years that abnormal chromosome numbers lead to protein imbalances in the affected cells.

Tau protein also contributes to synaptic plasticity and modulates intracellular signaling pathways, particularly through its dynamic association with tubulin and plasma membranes. 1 In addition to its ...
