Proteins, the pillars of cellular function, often assemble into 'complexes' to fulfill their functions. A study reveals why this assembly often begins during the very process of protein synthesis or ...
A disrupted protein degradation process in heart muscle cells can lead to a range of severe heart diseases. In the case of dilated cardiomyopathy, a pathological enlargement of the heart chambers, ...
This work emphasizes the importance of studying ribosomes within their native cellular environments to gain a more accurate understanding of their functional states during protein synthesis.
Translation elongation factors play a crucial role in the process of protein synthesis in bacteria. These factors assist the ribosome in efficiently adding amino acids to a growing polypeptide ...
A team of AI researchers, biologists and evolutionary specialists at EvolutionaryScale and the Arc Institute, both in the U.S., has designed and built an AI model capable of generating the code to ...
Synthesizing new proteins – the building blocks of biological life – is a scientific field of immense potential, and a newly developed AI model promises to create instructions for new proteins way ...
