Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have created a database that provides updated predicted structures on a ...

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 ...

From hemoglobin that carries oxygen, to enzymes and hormones that turn cells on and off, to antibodies that fight infection, proteins seem to do it all. There are many different types of proteins, ...

As people around the world marveled in July at the most detailed pictures of the cosmos snapped by the James Webb Space Telescope, biologists got their first glimpses of a different set of images — ...

Amino acids are organic compounds that serve as the fundamental building blocks of proteins. They play a crucial role in the structure, function, and regulation of the body's tissues and organs. Amino ...

Shigella bacteria can infect humans but not mice. In the March 29 issue of Nature, a team from UConn Health explains why. Their findings may explain the multifariousness of a key weapon of our immune ...

Researchers used cryo-EM to study how the HIV enzyme integrase arranges in 3D to slip its DNA into the host genome and pack its genetic material into new viral particles.
