Precise methods for shredding or repairing and replacing specific cancer-causing proteins in a malignant cell, developed at ...

Protein arginylation is an evolutionarily conserved post‐translational modification whereby arginine is covalently attached to specific residues on target proteins. Mediated principally by the enzyme ...

After three years of study, the researchers found that alpha-synuclein, a protein closely linked to Parkinson’s disease, forms an abnormal connection with an enzyme called ClpP. This enzyme normally ...

Researchers have identified a key molecular interaction that accelerates Parkinson’s disease by damaging the brain’s energy ...

The involvement of glial cells in Alzheimer's disease (AD) has been mostly viewed as a secondary adaptive response to ...

A new study led by Rice University's Pernilla Wittung-Stafshede has revealed that protein clumps, or plaques that clog the brain, associated with Parkinson's disease are not merely waste; they can ...

Researchers have developed technologies that allow damaged proteins to be shredded or healthy ones installed. This may ...

Researchers at the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore (NUS Medicine), have found that a key ...

Northwestern Medicine scientists have zeroed in on a cellular gatekeeper that may hold promise for treating abnormal protein ...

Cells that are about to die send a signal to an executioner protein, but sometimes, those cells can fight back and regenerate ...

Many people still don’t understand how protein works, why it matters or the best ways to get enough of it in their diet. Here ...
