Protein drugs feature significant advantages over small molecule therapeutics, including low toxicity, high specificity, and development speed. However, the quality control requirements are ...

Precise methods for shredding or repairing and replacing specific cancer-causing proteins in a malignant cell, developed at ...

Enzymes with specific functions are becoming increasingly important in industry, medicine and environmental protection. For example, they make it possible to synthesize chemicals in a more ...

Proteins play a key role in the life sciences - from basic research and biotechnological applications to the development and manufacturing of pharmaceuticals. Scientists at the Technical University of ...

Researchers have developed a method to evaluate the folding stability of a million proteins simultaneously. DNA libraries were used to generate protein -- DNA complexes that were treated with enzymes ...

Precise methods for shredding or repairing and replacing specific cancer-causing proteins in a malignant cell, developed at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, could have applications beyond ...

At the University of Oxford, scientists have developed a nanopore technology that can identify three different post-translational modifications (PTMs) in individual proteins, even deep within long ...

Proteins are made of chains of amino acids, and a basic tenet of biology is that the sequence of amino acids determines how a protein folds into a 3D shape which, in turn, dictates the protein’s ...

The new cell-free protein crystallization (CFPC) method includes direct protein crystallization and is a major headway in the field of structural biology. This technique will enable the analysis of ...
