For years, ETH researchers have been investigating a molecular complex that plays a key role in protein synthesis. They have ...

A designer version of the tau protein, developed by a team led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers, maintains its ...

Proteins are among the most important molecular building blocks of life. They are chains of amino acids assembled in our cells by ribosomes, the molecular "protein factories" of our bodies. The ...

CpG density and epigenetic modification state modulate DNA mechanics, altering its intrinsic compatibility with nucleosome formation.

Every cell depends on proteins to function and stay healthy. These proteins are made inside the cell from amino acids but ...
