For decades, scientists have understood proteins primarily through two defining features: their amino acid sequence and their ...

The Seegar Lab used advanced cryogenic electron microscopy techniques to visualize the structure of the ADAM17 enzyme bound to its regulator protein, iRhom2, and identify key elements vital for its ...

University of Cincinnati structural biologists are the first in the world to visualize a key cell protein as part of newly published research from the College of Medicine. The Seegar Lab has become ...

Proteins, one of the smallest building blocks of life on Earth, hold promise for answering some of biology's biggest questions. Consisting of amino acids strung together into peptide chains, these ...

On Wednesday, the Nobel Committee announced that it had awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry to researchers who pioneered major breakthroughs in computational chemistry. These include two researchers ...

An international team of researchers, including Earth-Life Science Institute (ELSI) at the Institute of Science Tokyo, has ...

Proteins are the end products of the decoding process that starts with the information in cellular DNA. As workhorses of the cell, proteins compose structural and motor elements in the cell, and they ...

A Rochester Institute of Technology student developed a tool that can help scientists visualize molecular motion and dynamics of proteins using virtual reality headsets. Kyle Diller, a fifth-year ...

When a protein folds, its string of amino acids wiggles and jiggles through countless conformations before it forms a fully folded, functional protein. This rapid and complex process is hard to ...

Make complex biology concepts easier to see, understand, and remember. This full-color Biology Visual Learning Guide is designed for Grade 8 and middle school science students who benefit from clear ...
