Precision and timing of gene expression is essential for normal biological functions and, when disrupted, can lead to many ...

When it comes to neurodegenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and certain forms of dementia, ...

Avenue Biosciences technology collects data sets on how specific signal peptides impact specific protein targets.

A KAIST research team led by Professor Won Do Heo (Department of Biological Sciences) has developed an optogenetic platform, RELISR (REversible LIght-induced Store and Release), that enables precise ...

Researchers at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine have discovered how specific protein regions contribute to breast cancer. Their study, published recently in Nature, focuses on what ...

“Proteins float around in the cell and constantly bump into each other. How can you design rates at which biology happens fast?” Adam Broerman, a graduate student at the University of Washington (UW), ...

Researchers have found a way to control protein levels inside different tissues of a whole, living animal for the first time. The method lets scientists dial protein levels up or down with great ...

Researchers have long faced a blunt limitation in biology. They could delete proteins or switch genes off, but they could not finely tune how much of a protein existed in specific tissues over an ...
