The latest animation technology has revealed the molecular detail of how our bodies are protected from cancer by a key 'tumour suppressor' protein called p53. The new WEHI-TV animation visualises ...

Complex protein interactions at synapses are essential for memory formation in our brains, but the mechanisms behind these processes remain poorly understood. Now, researchers from Japan have ...

Researchers from Osaka University have described the link between accurate protein folding and misfolding that can lead to the formation of amyloid fibers, which are implicated in neurodegenerative ...

To study pattern formation, researchers used a method called the landscape-flux framework — which can be extended to other ...

Scientists at Scripps Research, with collaborators in Japan, have discovered how a "poisoned" form of a protein could set off a cascade of events that encourage the growth of some cancers. The ...

Liquid-liquid phase separation is not a precursor to formation of amyloid fibrils, a pathological hallmark of Parkinson's disease, shows study. Rather, the formation of protein into liquid droplets ...

Interfacial stress analysis is an important step when evaluating the ability of various polysorbates (PS) to mitigate formation of subvisible and visible protein particles at the air/water interface ...

Computational models show that even subtle modifications in the synaptic protein CaMKII completely alter the resulting protein structures. Given how the formation and stability of these structures ...
