Proteins are essential biological molecules that perform a vast array of functions crucial for life, from catalyzing biochemical reactions and transporting molecules to providing structural support ...

An error in protein conformation can lead to disease. What are the genetic and molecular causes for incorrectly formed proteins? molecules. In 1917 the German chemist ...

Our cells produce a variety of proteins, each with a specific role that, in many cases, means that they need to be in a particular part of the cell where that role is needed. One of the ways that ...

Bioluminescence is the natural chemical process of light creation in some living creatures that makes fireflies flicker and some jellyfish glow. Scientists have long been interested in borrowing the ...

Research captures how the GRP94 protein shields itself to make sure it forms properly and suggests a way to target it for future disease treatments. Proteins are often called the building blocks of ...

The de novo designed protiens can emit multiple colors of light, which could allow a researcher or clinician to monitor various different biological feature. Bioluminescence is the natural chemical ...
