Prof. Liu Cong from the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, along with collaborators, ...

Avenue Biosciences technology collects data sets on how specific signal peptides impact specific protein targets.

Jia’s team developed a protocol to improve the screening of protein pockets. This involved identifying the pockets, removing ...

One of the hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease is the clumping of proteins called Tau, which form tangled fibrils in the brain. The more severe the clumping, the more advanced the disease is.

Complex protein interactions at synapses are essential for memory formation in our brains, but the mechanisms behind these processes remain poorly understood. Now, researchers have developed a ...

A selective protein degradation system known as Golgi membrane-associated degradation (GOMED), which identifies and removes ...

This study is reported by Xueping Zhou and Fangfangli’s group from the Institute of Plant Protection, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences (IPP, CAAS), Beijing. Like other positive-sense ...

Researchers have identified the specific structural loops in G-quadruplex DNA that allow it to act as a chaperone, preventing ...

Longevity science has spent decades chasing single molecules that might slow aging, but most candidates have delivered modest, inconsistent results. A new line of research is now pointing to a ...

For those outside the chemistry cognoscenti, the announcement might have seemed little more than researchers patting each other on the back. But the question of protein folding had plagued scientists ...
