The persistence of the en pattern in hypoxia might be due to stabilization of the gene products or to an unchanging steady state of continued protein synthesis and degradation. Either of these ...

Scientists observe ribosomal cooperation that prevents pauses in protein synthesis, revealing new dynamics for cellular ...

Most proteins are left-handed, but scientists have found an ancient molecule that works in both mirror-image forms.

Machine learning and supercomputing have brought about a revolution in computational drug discovery. More therapeutic candidates, like antibodies that bind to and fight the SARS-CoV-2 virus, can be ...

This process is called muscle protein synthesis (MPS). Over time, as your muscles adapt and rebuild stronger than before, this leads to increases in muscle size and strength. That’s why ensuring ...

A new study asked three questions about muscle protein synthesis in response to a nine-day diet and weight training regimen: First, does the source of protein—plant or animal-based—make any ...

Fast-digesting proteins with a high proportion of essential amino acids, especially leucine, are most effective in promoting muscle protein synthesis, particularly around physical activity.

Despite being deficient in many essential vitamins and nutrients, protein has garnered consumers’ attention. But why? Low carb, low sugar, low fat but high in protein. It’s the magical buzzword that ...

There are many protein myths, but one thing is certain: Your body needs the complex molecules to function, and many of us aren’t getting enough. It’s a key macronutrient (along with ...

Genetically encoded tags, including fluorescent proteins and epitope sequences, are widely used to monitor protein behavior. Large tags can alter protein localization or disrupt native interactions.
