“Eggs should absolutely be part of your weekly rotation, but you want to eat the egg with the yolk,” says Barmmer. In a large ...

A new study led by researchers at the Earth-Life Science Institute (ELSI) at the Institute of Science, Tokyo, has uncovered a surprising role for calcium in shaping life's earliest molecular ...

A study from Cornell researchers could enable a quantum leap forward in identifying and deciphering cancer-driving genetic ...

In downstream processing of biopharmaceutical products, protein aggregation presents one of the main risks in terms of ...

DNA is fundamental to the biology of all life on Earth, but how many of us actually know what it is or what it's made of?

Recent work in The EMBO Journal describes a new hybrid post-translational modification of proteins, composed of a poly-ubiquitin chain that is attached to a target protein via a mono-ADP-ribose (MAR) ...

Designing peptide therapeutics requires precise peptide docking, which remains a challenge. We assessed the ESMFold language model, originally designed for protein structure prediction, for its ...

Inspired by mussels, which exhibit remarkable adhesive properties in natural environments, the research team focused on the plantar proteins of ... designed functional monomers that replicate ...

Additional modeling studies showed that if the number of base pairs per protein monomer is increased (for example, to 10 base pairs per protein), many possibilities for DNA condensation may exist ...

The mitochondrial proteome encompasses about 1,500 proteins encoded by both the nuclear DNA and the maternally inherited mitochondrial DNA. Mutations in the nuclear or mitochondrial genome, or ...
