Martin Vollmer, biopharma program manager at Agilent Technologies, spoke to LCGC International about the evolving importance of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) therapeutics and the challenges they ...

Imagine a bacterial cell—one of the multi-drug-resistant varieties that keep infectious disease experts up at night—blown ...

Researchers have long known that glycosaminoglycan-binding proteins (HBPs) help control vital processes like cell growth, ...

Researchers at Silesian University found that the surrounding hydrophobic environment primarily guides how proteins fold, not just their amino acid sequences This helps explain how "chameleon ...

This hierarchy aligns with experimental data on amino acid solubilities and potentials of mean force derived from atomistic simulations. However, it contradicts conventional chemical intuition based ...

This is to be confident that the obtained RFI mainly originates from the hydrophobic interaction. The validated protocol was then applied to protein hydrolyzate and amino acids to investigate the ...

A man's deadly infection was triggered by a probiotic supplement The younger patients had higher levels of metabolites related to the production and breakdown of an amino acid, or protein building ...

Hydrophobic amino acids are vital components in the realm of protein structure and function. While hydrophilic amino acids establish interactions with water molecules in the cellular environment, ...

Do you ever have those days where you leave home only to be hit by a reality you haven't noticed in a while? Everyone's walking around with raccoon eyes and blank stares on their faces, looking ...

This important study investigates the structural organization of a series of diblock elastin-like polypeptide condensates. The methodology is highly compelling, as it combines multiscale simulations ...

By using slightly more hydrophobic amino acids, we were able to design the polymers in such a way that they embed themselves in the cell membrane—which does not normally happen—before they are ...
