Proteins and peptides form the cornerstone of cellular function, serving not only as essential catalysts and structural components but also as mediators of signalling and regulation in health and ...

Proteins are the molecular machines of cells. They are produced in protein factories called ribosomes based on their blueprint—the genetic information. Here, the basic building blocks of proteins, ...

In recent years, cancer researchers have made major breakthroughs by using the body's immune system to fight cancer. One of ...

A Purdue University team has discovered a new therapeutic target for triple-negative breast cancer. The research, led by Kyle ...

University of Toronto researchers have expanded our understanding of bacterial immunity with the discovery of a new protein ...

Scientists may have figured out a brand new way to treat lung cancer by using a protein that inhibits tumor growth. This previously unknown molecule pathway could help researchers develop personalized ...

Every time a cell divides, it must copy its entire genome so that each daughter cell inherits a complete set of DNA. During that process, enzymes known as polymerases race along the DNA to copy its ...

They build our bodies and orchestrate the molecular processes in cells that keep them healthy. They also present a wealth of targets for new medications. From everyday pain relievers to sophisticated ...

Sometimes, life can be a real drag—especially if you’re a protein weighed down by unwanted baggage. Researchers have unveiled evidence that these ponderous proteins could be involved in a range of ...

Saint Louis University’s Protein Core is a shared-use core facility that supports expression, purification and analysis of reagent and preclinical proteins. The core provides instrumentation and ...
