Proteins form the building blocks of life, but when they form unusual clumps inside the brain, they raise an alarm that ...

Dewpoint has selected a novel small molecule to prevent the formation of abnormal TDP-43 protein clumps in ALS and other ...

A new study led by researchers at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center, its Bloomberg~Kimmel Institute for Cancer ...

NIMHANS researchers propose a new model for early protein deposits in Parkinson’s, offering insights for future drug ...

To ensure that protein production in our cells runs smoothly, the protein complex NAC slows down the rate of protein synthesis right at the start. An international research team with significant ...

Exosome-associated THSD7A is identified as a key trigger of filopodia formation in cancer cells and neurons, revealing a ...

The formation of amyloid fibrils and the aggregation of misfolded proteins are central to the pathology of Alzheimer’s disease. At the molecular level, normal proteins adopt aberrant conformations ...

Computational models show that even subtle modifications in the synaptic protein CaMKII completely alter the resulting protein structures. Given how the formation and stability of these structures ...

Certain types of biochemical processes can impair the immune system's ability to recognize and kill cancer cells. Purdue University's W. Andy Tao and his associates have developed a new way to study ...
