BUFFALO, N.Y. — University at Buffalo biophysicist Priya R. Banerjee has received a $2.1 million National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant to continue his research on biomolecular condensates, which ...

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 ...

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 ...

Scientists at the University of California, Santa Cruz, have trapped the ribosome, a protein-building molecular machine essential to all life, in a key transitional state that has long eluded ...

Nerve cells have amazing strategies to save energy and still perform the most important of their tasks. Researchers from the University Hospital Bonn (UKB) and the University of Bonn as well as the ...

A principle of DNA synthesis that has dominated biology textbooks for decades could be upended. An enzyme has been discovered ...

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 ...

Once the most successful mRNA-based LNP was tested in 3D in vitro models, the fluorescent dye continued to facilitate ...
