A new study reveals a possible protein misfolding mechanism that may resolve a long-standing mystery of why certain proteins ...

Proteins are long molecules that must fold into complex three-dimensional structures to perform their cellular functions.

Proteins are long molecules that must fold into complex three-dimensional structures to perform their cellular functions. This folding process occasionally goes awry, resulting in misfolded proteins ...

Scientists at UCL have discovered a novel role played by ribosomes during the folding of new proteins in cells, described in their paper in Nature. Ribosomes, the cell's dedicated molecular ...

A new theory suggests temperature controls how metamorphic proteins shapeshift, with colder temperatures promoting ...

BEAM-302 "has set the bar for efficacy in this space," William Blair analysts wrote in an investor note on Monday.

With the long-term goal of creating living cells from non-living components, scientists in the field of synthetic biology work with RNA origami. This tool uses the multifunctionality of the natural ...

The team was able to reach protein yields at the pool stage that couldn’t be achieved previously with a random integration approach.
