Immunologists from the Institute have been the first to uncover a role for a family of RNA binding proteins in the function of regulatory T cells in the immune system. As their name suggests, ...

A research team at Florida State University's Institute of Molecular Biophysics and Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry has discovered how a protein found in the human body interacts with RNA in ...

Cancer cells are metabolic opportunists, bending every pathway to fuel unchecked growth. Now UCLA scientists show that a single protein—Insulin-like Growth Factor 2 mRNA-Binding Protein 3 ...

The recent discovery of glycoRNAs on the cell surface upended the world of cell biology. These glycoRNAs were found to form highly organized clusters with cell surface RNA binding proteins (csRBPs), ...

A Purdue University team has discovered a new therapeutic target for triple-negative breast cancer. The research, led by Kyle Cottrell, an assistant professor of biochemistry, spotlights ...

Researchers at the University of California San Diego have developed a large-scale screening approach that identifies proteins controlling a fundamental step in gene expression known as alternative ...

Announcing a new publication for Acta Materia Medica journal. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data from published datasets were obtained to investigate the expression and dysregulation of ...

Low-complexity domains in proteins are composed of a small subset of the full complement of amino acids, and in these domains, the amino acid sequences are often repetitive. Their relevance to health ...

In most modern cells, DNA stores the genetic blueprint, and relies on proteins to replicate, repair and build from those ...

This Brush Up is sponsored by Quanterix. Learn more about tau biomarkers and clinical applications. Tau is a flexible protein that stabilizes the internal structure of neurons and supports ...
