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

Researchers at ETH Zurich recently explained the role of a molecular complex that orchestrates the production of proteins in ...

A research team led by Prof. XU Zhiheng from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology of the Chinese Academy of ...

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 ...

To ensure that protein production in our cells runs smoothly, the protein complex NAC slows down the rate of protein ...

A research team led by Prof. Xu Zhiheng from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has identified Tapt1, together with its partner Suco, as important ...

Cells do what proteins tell them to do. But sequencing DNA or running microarrays won’t reveal a protein’s mandate. During and after translation, enzymes, lipids, proteins, and sugars decorate the ...

Located at the cellular interface, membrane proteins play critical regulatory roles in the signaling between a cell and its interacting environment, making them popular and ideal drug targets.

These proteins depend on their partner because they are rapidly degraded if they are not combined into complexes as soon as they are made. Proteins, the pillars of cellular function, often assemble ...
