Proteins, the pillars of cellular function, often assemble into 'complexes' to fulfill their functions. A study reveals why this assembly often begins during the very process of protein synthesis or ...

The latest short science news items from C&EN. Proteins are vital for life, involved in virtually every biochemical process that makes life possible. They comprise one or more amino acid chains ...

Northwestern Medicine scientists have developed a novel synthetic biomolecular condensate that can degrade intracellular ...

Some proteins in human cells that are implicated in cancer also have causal roles in neurodevelopmental disorders, raising the possibility of repurposing targeted cancer therapies to help address ...

Real-time and in-line accurate measuring of protein (monoclonal antibody, or mAb) concentration has been shown across a wide dynamic range (0–135 g/L) through the ...

Scientists at Stanford may have uncovered a hidden reason our brains decline with age. Studying the ultra-short-lived turquoise killifish, researchers discovered that the cellular machinery ...

Microglia are the brain's immune cells that clean out debris, such as damaged proteins and old cell parts, to keep the organ healthy. But the very properties that make these cells so useful might also ...
