"We now have a foundational data set that shows how protein dynamics change in normal heart development," said first author Whitney Edwards, Ph.D., and assistant professor in the UNC Department of ...

The behaviour of a receptor protein can be influenced by the presence of certain lipids in the membrane it is embedded in.

New research from the University of Wisconsin–Madison decodes the evolutionary pathway of regulatory proteins, the molecules that help control gene expression. The findings from the Raman Lab in the ...

When targeting problem proteins involved in causing or spreading disease, a drug will often clog up a protein's active site so it can't function and wreak havoc. New strategies for dealing with these ...

Some of the most infamous drivers of cancer are mutations in RAS genes, which lead to tumor growth in about a quarter of all cancer patients. Scientists at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard and ...

Researchers have found that proteins and pathways involved in inflammation are associated with changes in bone mineral density (BMD) over time. The research, could potentially lead to the ...

Scientists have uncovered a direct molecular mechanism by which gut bacteria inject proteins into human cells, reshaping immune responses and potentially driving inflammatory disease. Scientists have ...

With Alzheimer’s disease therapies finally reaching the market and hundreds of active clinical trials for therapies and diagnostics, it seems like every week brings another potential avenue to explore ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising genetic shift that may explain how animals with backbones—from fish and frogs to ...
