Protein biosynthesis—the process whereby cells produce protein molecules, which are essential for life and growth—is a highly ...

A research team from the International Research Center for Medical Sciences (IRCMS) at Kumamoto University has identified a ...

A team of researchers in Kumamoto University uncovered a previously unrecognized role of mitochondrial protein synthesis in ...

Two molecular control factors play a decisive role in what is known as splicing, the cutting and assembly of mature messenger RNA—a prerequisite for protein synthesis in the cell. The poorly ...

Cells express their genes by converting the genetic message into protein. This process of protein synthesis occurs in two stages - transcription and translation. When a gene is to be expressed ...

The Protein and Peptide Science Group (PPSG) is one of the RSC's many Interest Groups. The Interest Groups are member driven groups which exist to benefit RSC members, and the wider chemical science ...

A protein, MdfA, crucial for bacterial survival in extreme conditions, has been identified. It facilitates sporulation by instructing cells to degrade metabolic enzymes, leading to dormancy.

through facilitating protein assembly during biosynthesis, but also perhaps facilitating potentially harmful misfolding events linked to disease—demonstrating how the ribosome is both essential ...

Researchers have identified a previously unknown bacterial protein, the structure of which is being used in the design of protein nanoparticles for the targeted delivery of anticancer drugs to tumors.
