The functioning of neurons, cells that transmit information in the nervous system, heavily relies on the production of ...

Researchers at VIB and KU Leuven have identified a molecular process that allows motor neurons to maintain protein production ...

tRNAs have a distinct cloverleaf secondary structure and an L-shaped tertiary structure. The cloverleaf structure is formed by the folding of the single-stranded tRNA molecule, which is typically ...

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 ...

Transcription and translation are processes a cell uses to make all proteins the body needs to function from information stored in the sequence of bases in DNA. The four bases (C, A, T/U, and G in the ...

Researchers at VIB and KU Leuven have identified a molecular process that allows motor neurons to maintain protein production ...

From metabolic health to muscle recovery, protein is the silent engine of your body. Discover why current guidelines have ...
