Inside each cell of the human body are proteins that control which genes are expressed at the right place and time. However, intriguingly, many of the most important proteins involved in gene ...

The functions of biomolecules, including lipids, nucleic acids and especially proteins are determined to a great extent by their structure. This structure–function relationship is a foundation of many ...

Proteins are often called the building blocks of life. While true, the analogy evokes images of Lego-like pieces snapping together to form intricate but rigid blocks that combine into muscles and ...

Cells have an internal skeleton that maintains their structure and also drives their movement. Known as the cytoskeleton, ...

EMBL scientists have improved a protein analysis technique, significantly expanding its use and making it 100 times faster.

It took decades of painstaking research to map the structure of just 17 per cent of the proteins used within the human body, but less than a year for UK-based AI company DeepMind to raise that figure ...

Proteins are often studied at very low temperatures. In the case of cryo-electron microscopy, for example, proteins are frozen so they can be analyzed with powerful microscopes to learn more about ...

Now, a growing body of scientific evidence shows hundreds of genes act differently in the brains of biologically male or ...
