Max Planck scientists find a novel way to construct transition states for protein folding reactions. Scientists continue to be puzzled by how proteins fold intotheir three-dimensional structures.

Cancer has been recently shown to be affected by protein clusters, particularly by the aggregation of mutant variants of the tumor suppressor protein p53, which are present in more than half of ...

In a recent preprint study deposited online in bioRxiv, investigators from the Netherlands and Australia report on two families (including one family with two affected siblings) with early-onset AML ...

A new study currently available on the Research Square* preprint server has pointed out that molnupiravir treatment increases the ratio of transition to transversion mutations in coronavirus disease ...

In what is believed to be the largest study of its kind in the US, researchers have found that almost 26 percent of women studied who have breast cancer have mutations in a gene important in ...

In a recent study posted to the medRxiv* preprint server, researchers explore a mutational signature related to molnupiravir in the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) ...

Scientists continue to be puzzled by how proteins fold into their three-dimensional structures. Small single-domain proteins may hold the key to solving this puzzle. These proteins often fold into ...
