Scientists have long struggled to target proteins that lack defined structure and are involved in cancer, neurodegenerative ...

Each cell in your body relies on precise communication with other cells to function properly. At the center of this process are the molecular switches that turn communication signals in the body on ...

A study from Cornell researchers could enable a quantum leap forward in identifying and deciphering cancer-driving genetic ...

For successful cell division, chromosomal DNA needs to be packed into compact rod-shaped structures. Defects in this process can lead to cell death or diseases like cancer. A new study has shown how ...

Harvard Medical School scientists have identified a key protein in the human immune system that drives inflammatory and ...

Scientists have made a potentially “life-changing” discovery that could pave the way for new drugs to treat Parkinson’s ...

Scientists from Germany and Italy have uncovered details of the protective layer that surrounds the fine protrusions of cells ...

Scientists have known for years that certain proteins were associated with Parkinson’s disease. But in a recent paper ...

Scientists at EMBL have captured how human chromosomes fold into their signature rod shape during cell division, using a ...

A natural antibacterial molecule shows clinical promise. Its unusual binding site is on an excellent target: ...

Who were our earliest ancestors? The answer could lie in a special group of single-celled organisms with a cytoskeleton similar to that of complex organisms, such as animals and plants.

Scientists in Basel revealed that energy-producing proteins in mitochondria form large supercomplexes, boosting ATP ...
