The human genome contains around 20,000 genes that hold instructions for making working proteins, as most genetic databases ...

Scientists have uncovered a novel mechanism through which skin cells organize and control protein production during homeostasis and wound healing, according to a new study published in Developmental ...

A protein found only in microscopic tardigrades, one that allows them to survive extreme conditions like dehydration, can ...

Using AI, scientists have built a “GPS” for cancer-fighting immune cells. It’s a molecular navigation system that helped the cells lock onto cancer, kind of like Google Maps guiding travelers to a new ...

Syracuse University scientists learned how a flexible, reshaping protein creates temporary sorting and storing centers in stressed cells to potentially protect their health. A companion study found ...

Plants are under constant stress due to pathogens, heat, or other environmental factors. Proteins can become damaged as a ...

Learn how host cell protein (HCP) testing methods are used to detect impurities and ensure quality in biologics manufacturing ...

Structures called desmosomes connect cells to each other and transfer mechanical stress. They are especially important in tissues under continual mechanical stress, such as heart muscle (pictured).

T cells are crucial components of our immune system, serving as critical protectors against infection and disease. But there ...

A largely overlooked structure inside our cells may play a crucial role in how the brain forms, offering new insight into ...
