Researchers at ETH Zurich recently explained the role of a molecular complex that orchestrates the production of proteins in ...

To ensure that protein production in our cells runs smoothly, the protein complex NAC slows down the rate of protein ...

A newly developed luciferase-based reporter can detect problems in protein translocation and disulfide bond formation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Inspired by natural mechanisms found in ...

Every cell depends on proteins to function and stay healthy. These proteins are made inside the cell from amino acids, but cannot simply accumulate inside the cell forever. Once they have done their ...

Cryo-EM structure of the Giardia ribosome reveals a highly compact, GC-rich rRNA with eukaryotic r-proteins. (A) Structure of the Giardia ribosome with all the r-proteins colored (SSU, shades of blue ...

Every cell depends on proteins to function and stay healthy. These proteins are made inside the cell from amino acids but cannot simply accumulate inside the cell forever.

The protein factories in our cells – so-called ribosomes – have a central task: during a process known as translation, amino acids are linked together ...

A protein engineering method using simple, cost-effective experiments and machine learning models can predict which proteins will be effective for a given purpose, according to a new study. A protein ...
