Researchers at VIB and KU Leuven have identified a molecular process that allows motor neurons to maintain protein production ...

To stay healthy, our cells rely on a self-cleaning mechanism that removes defective or unnecessary components. This process, ...

Healthy cells are constantly breaking down proteins and building up new ones with the help of enzymes aptly named unfoldases, because they unravel proteins tagged for destruction or recycling. Now, a ...

The cells in living organisms are constantly making proteins. Ribosomes, the RNA-protein complexes that make other proteins, ...

A protein engineering method using simple, cost-effective experiments and machine learning models can predict which proteins will be effective for a given purpose, according to a new study. A protein ...

Protein plays a critical role in nearly every process in the human body, from metabolism and hormone regulation to maintaining muscle mass and healthy skin. Yet research suggests many ...

Protein indirectly contributes to your daily energy levels. However, the body typically relies on carbohydrates as its ...
