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

Creating synthetic proteins is a promising avenue of study, but could we take shortcuts on nature’s blueprint and make more efficient versions? Scientists at UC Berkeley have found that simpler combos ...

The body uses protein-based molecular motors to perform functions essential to life. Now, researchers have created ‘The Lawnmower,’ the first synthetic motor modeled on those found in nature that ...

A synthetic protein that disrupts the ability of bacteria to perform basic life functions – moving, eating, attaching to hosts – could be a key to fighting infectious disease and preventing bacteria ...

Researchers at VIB and KU Leuven have identified a molecular process that allows motor neurons to maintain protein production, a process that fails in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

(SALT LAKE CITY)–University of Utah biochemists have reported an advance in the production of functional mirror-image proteins. According to a groundbreaking study published in this week's online ...

Cancer immunotherapy, especially using T cells, is showing a lot of promise in treating blood cancers. Bioengineered T cells, especially those equipped with chimeric antigen receptors (CAR-T cells), ...
