Many proteins are capable of spontaneously rearranging themselves within cells to form molecular condensates—membraneless ...

In the process of protein synthesis there is a “stochastic” component, i.e., involving random chance, which influences the time the process takes. This aspect has been investigated by two ...

A protein that binds rare-earth elements could be used to extract and separate these valuable metals from low-grade sources, such as coal ash or electronic waste (ACS Cent. Sci. 2021, DOI: ...

Natural protein captures rare-earth elements better than synthetic chelators A lanthanide-binding protein found in bacteria could extract rare-earth metals more efficiently and with less waste by ...

Two key protein structures in the body are being visualized for the first time, thanks in part to the latest technology in ...

The lab of Hassane Mchaourab, director of the Center for Applied Artificial Intelligence in Protein Dynamics and professor of molecular physiology and biophysics, has developed a methodological ...

In a recent study published in Nature Physics, researchers found that proteins harboring a flexible domain near the NLS enter the nucleus faster. 3 To mimic this limber protein element, the ...

Self-removing tags can be used for simple and effective purification of recombinant proteins and peptides. The key component of these tags is an intein, which is a protein element with the ability to ...

Protein elements play a pivotal role on this landscape, serving as critical building blocks for muscle increase, repair, and upkeep in the realm of sports nutrition.

While some L-cysteine can be concocted in labs, a cheaper alternative is using human-grown locks for its natural protein element.

After Alzheimer's, Parkinson's is the most common neurodegenerative disease in the world. More than six million people worldwide suffer from it. In this disease, alpha-synuclein proteins form ...
