Researchers have discovered how unstructured segments of surface proteins regulate the biological function of a cell. Their ...

Impeding a link between the body's natural clock and the brain may help reduce neurodegeneration in mice modeling Alzheimer's ...

When a woman becomes pregnant, the outcome of that pregnancy depends on many things — including a crucial event that happened while she was still growing inside her own mother’s womb.

In Alzheimer's Disease and other neurodegenerative dementias, proteins that normally play a role in healthy brain tissue turn bad, clumping together to form insoluble plaques and tangles as neurons ...

Salk researchers report they have discovered a protein called Mitf that mediates the repair function in the peripheral nervous systems of mice. The protein Mitf helps turn on the repair function of ...

A team from the University of Illinois has uncovered surprising evolutionary links between the genetic code and tiny protein fragments called dipeptides. By analyzing billions of dipeptide sequences ...
