High-resolution structures of nascent polypeptide chains in complex with the ribosome — the cell’s protein-synthesis machinery — reveal how the ribosome guides protein folding. Ribosomal attachment ...

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 machines ...

Ribosomes—the tiny factories that build proteins in our cells—don't all work with the same efficiency. Researchers from Japan ...

Within a cell, DNA carries the genetic code for building proteins. To build proteins, the cell makes a copy of DNA, called mRNA. Then, another molecule called a ribosome reads the mRNA, translating it ...

In a recent study, researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine suggest the cell's messenger RNA (mRNA) - the major translator and regulator of genetic material - along with a critical protein called ZAK, ...

Proteins sourced from microorganisms are attracting attention for their potential in biomanufacturing a variety of products, including pharmaceuticals, industrial enzymes, and diagnostic antibodies.

Our immune system is constantly monitoring our body. In order to survive, cancer cells need to evade this surveillance. Now a new study by researchers at the Netherlands Cancer Institute reveals a new ...
