Proteins form the structural and functional backbone of the cell, and any perturbation in their synthesis can disrupt normal ...

In fact, each gene in cellular DNA contains the code for a unique protein structure. Not only are these proteins assembled with different amino acid sequences, but they also are held together by ...

The phosphotyrosine-binding (PTB) domain of Numb, a protein involved in asymmetric cell division, has recently been shown to bind to the adapter protein Lnx through an LDNPAY sequence, to the Numb ...

The process of translation by ribosomes, which functions as a factory of protein synthesis, may be impeded by ‘ribosome ...

BPC-157, a pentadecapeptide derived from an endogenously occurring protein sequence in gastric juice, has garnered attention ...

Proteins are composed of one or more chains of amino acids, which are linked together by peptide bonds and folded into specific three-dimensional structures. Proteins have four levels of structure: ...

Although the rational protein design approach offers an increased possibility of beneficial alterations, it is not easy to accurately predict the sequence-structure-function relationship, particularly ...
