The behaviour of a receptor protein can be influenced by the presence of certain lipids in the membrane it is embedded in.

Intracellular peptides, generated predominantly via the ubiquitin–proteasome system, have emerged as critical modulators of cell signalling. These peptides play multifaceted roles, ranging from ...

Life runs on instructions you never see. Every cell reads DNA, turns that message into RNA, and then builds proteins that ...

Scientists have uncovered a direct molecular mechanism by which gut bacteria inject proteins into human cells, reshaping immune responses and potentially driving inflammatory disease. Scientists have ...

A new paper published today in Cell highlights how researchers have leveraged AI-based computational protein design to create a novel synthetic ligand that activates the Notch signaling pathway, a key ...

Common gut bacteria use protein delivery systems to interact directly with human cells, reshaping how scientists view the ...

Australian researchers have uncovered a crucial new mechanism that helps explain how the heart's major blood vessels form ...
