An illustration showing how the nascent polypeptide-associated complex (NAC, green) at the ribosome (blue) helps the amino acid chain (white) to fold into a protein. In the earliest phase of creating ...
Scientists from Uppsala University have used cryo-electron microscopy to reveal details of the protein synthesis mechanism in the parasite Giardia intestinalis, which causes diarrheic disease. The new ...
Elongation, a crucial step in the translation process of protein synthesis, gets disrupted by amino acid sequences with an abundance of N-terminal aspartic and glutamic acid residues in eukaryotic ...
A newly developed luciferase-based reporter can detect problems in protein translocation and disulfide bond formation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Inspired by natural mechanisms found in ...
The discovery of ribosomes dates back to the 1950s, when George Palade first observed dense particles in the cytoplasm of cells using electron microscopy. These particles were later named "ribosomes" ...
Postdoctoral researcher Urmila Sehrawat discusses her work at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center on translational ...
