Researchers at ETH Zurich recently explained the role of a molecular complex that orchestrates the production of proteins in our cells. They now show that this complex also controls the processing of ...

A novel study uncovers how a subtle chemical tweak transforms the naturally occurring phytotoxin into a powerful molecular glue, 12-deoxyfusicoccin (12-dFC), that locks 14-3-3 proteins onto the ...

A team of researchers has uncovered a previously unrecognized role of mitochondrial protein synthesis in the maintenance of intracellular iron distribution. Disruption of this process was found to ...

A study on how aging impacts the brain in killifish has found that getting old selectively impairs the production of some key DNA- and RNA-binding proteins. And this change contributes to hallmarks of ...

Protein has become the superstar of modern nutrition. From gym-goers chugging shakes to everyday eaters choosing high-protein snacks, the nutrient is everywhere. But amid the hype, one often thinks ...
