Researchers at ETH Zurich recently explained the role of a molecular complex that orchestrates the production of proteins in ...

Ribosomes—the tiny factories that build proteins in our cells—don't all work with the same efficiency. Researchers from Japan ...

Proteins are among the most important molecular building blocks of life. They are chains of amino acids assembled in our cells by ribosomes, the molecular "protein factories" of our bodies. The ...

Every cell depends on proteins to function and stay healthy. These proteins are made inside the cell from amino acids, but ...

Understanding the best ways to get a membrane protein to its destination in a cell is crucial, and the best method to make this happen is still unclear. Cell-free systems allow for interactions ...

A research team led by Prof. XU Zhiheng from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has identified Tapt1, together with its partner Suco, as important ...

For years, ETH researchers have been investigating a molecular complex that plays a key role in protein synthesis. They have ...
