Researchers discovered a novel protein modification driven by IDH mutations that alters cancer metabolism. The build-up of ...
It's been generally assumed that RNA molecules and proteins have only limited or transient interactions in cells, like when proteins that can bind to RNA molecules influence the translation of genes, ...
A new study on fatty acid acylation, or attachment, patterns onto proteins in Caenorhabditis elegans, a type of roundworm, provides a foundation for future discoveries around protein function and its ...
A new light-driven method targets pyroglutamate, a subtle protein modification, enabling tagging and study of its role in ...
Eight histones assemble into so-called nucleosomes, around which DNA is wrapped and thereby compacted. Chemical modification of these proteins while they are being synthesized is crucial for proper ...
Exploring the post-translational modifications of a key protein in Parkinson's disease, researchers uncover potential pathways for future therapies in neurodegenerative diseases in general.
A research team led by Professor Seung Soo Oh and Dr. Hyesung Jo from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at POSTECH (Pohang University of Science and Technology) has developed an ...
Virology researchers have found that a specific protein modification to the immune protein MDA5 is key to how our bodies detect and respond to viruses and viral replication. The publication explains ...
