Large-scale protein and gene profiling have massively expanded the landscape of cancer-associated proteins and gene mutations, but it has been difficult to discern whether they play an active role in ...

Researchers have discovered how unstructured segments of surface proteins regulate the biological function of a cell. Their study, published in Nature Communications, sheds new light on the interplay ...

The ability to evolve proteins with new or improved functions provides powerful applications for the development of selective, high-affinity antibodies, enzymes with new catalytic properties, and the ...

Researchers are exploring how DNA–protein hydrogels can turn molecular information into mechanical and functional properties ...

Proteins are the workhorses that keep our cells running, and there are many thousands of types of proteins in our cells, each performing a specialized function. Researchers have long known that the ...
