Lactylation, a recently identified post-translational modification, has emerged as important for immune regulation, tissue repair, cancer cell metabolism, and now, potentially, Alzheimer’s disease. In ...

Post-translational modifications (PTMs) play a key role in dynamic cellular processes, regulating gene expression, protein activity, localization, and degradation, as well as protein interaction.

Exploring the post-translational modifications of a key protein in Parkinson's disease, researchers uncover potential pathways for future therapies in neurodegenerative diseases in general.

One of the first things that students learn when they enter a biology class is the central dogma: DNA → messenger RNA → proteins. Only about 3% of the human genome directly codes for proteins, which ...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) model that reveals how protein modifications link genetic mutations to disease. The method, called DeepMVP and ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich recently explained the role of a molecular complex that orchestrates the production of proteins in ...

For years, ETH researchers have been investigating a molecular complex that plays a key role in protein synthesis. They have ...

New UC Riverside research has revealed COVID's Achilles heel - its dependence on key human proteins for its replication - which can be used to prevent the virus from making people sick. In a new paper ...
