Membrane protein targeting and insertion is a fundamental process in cellular biology that ensures proteins are correctly delivered to, and integrated within, the lipid bilayer. Proteins destined for ...
Individual mammalian cells contain billions of protein molecules, which must be synthesized, deployed, and removed with ...
Targeted protein degradation (TPD) is transforming drug discovery by leveraging the cell’s natural protein disposal systems to eliminate disease-causing proteins. Innovators are making rapid and ...
Chronic inflammation occurs when the immune system is stuck in attack-mode, sending cell after cell to defend and repair the body for months or even years. Diseases associated with chronic ...
Popular GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, and Mounjaro can have unintended consequences if you don’t eat enough protein while you take them. That’s because these drugs can cause rapid weight ...
Researchers at VIB and KU Leuven have identified a molecular process that allows motor neurons to maintain protein production, a process that fails in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
Protein, as we all know is the building block of the body-it helps build body tissues, including muscles and bones, and is essential for creating hormones, enzymes, and antibodies that support the ...
Protein’s always been a big deal when it comes to health—and for all the right reasons. It builds muscle, repairs tissues, ...
