Motor proteins are tiny "machines" inside cells that use chemical energy to move along molecular tracks and carry out ...

Proteins are the end products of the decoding process that starts with the information in cellular DNA. As workhorses of the cell, proteins compose structural and motor elements in the cell, and they ...

Researchers in Göttingen, Germany, have elucidated the structure and function of otoferlin, a protein that plays a crucial ...

The first full-length structures of two heat shock chaperone proteins in a complex reveal the key structural region ...

Scientists have for the first time looked deep into the protein structure that may determine our vision - and discovered that it is much more dynamic than previously thought. RBP3 not only changes its ...

A new study presents computational strategies to manipulate membrane protein folding and function for biotechnological applications.

Inside each cell of the human body are proteins that control which genes are expressed at the right place and time. However, intriguingly, many of the most important proteins involved in gene ...

Scientists uncover why some proteins survive dehydration, unlocking new possibilities for medicine, food storage, and biotech ...

Some cells, such as immune cells, are highly mobile—they constantly remodel their shape, migrate toward a wound that needs to ...
