How does the heart beat out its regular rhythm for decades? How do our eyes process the light and color before them? Ion channels control or regulate diverse physiological activities in our body.

This film creatively illustrates the process of protein synthesis through dance, symbolizing the assembly of amino acids into proteins. It explains how genes encode instructions for amino acid ...

Advances in protein sequencing enable deeper insights and facilitate applications such as biomarker discovery and ...

Li, C. H., Geschwind, I. I., Cole, R. D., Raacke, I. D., Harris, J. I., and Dixon, J. S., Nature, 176, 687 (1955).

This process, known as condensation or dehydration synthesis, results in the formation of a linear chain of amino acids. The sequence of amino acids in a protein, known as its primary structure, ...

The Harvard Medical School researcher’s work on the genetic basis of protein coding and production led him to make groundbreaking ... Together they developed a technique that confirmed that amino ...

Synthetic proteins that promote multi-step catalysis have previously proven challenging to engineer. But the team behind this ...

He says that in contrast to methods for modifying peptide backbones that his lab team and others have reported, the method appears to be work independent of a protein’s amino acid sequence.

This important study uses advanced computational methods to elucidate how environmental dielectric properties influence the interaction strengths of tyrosine and phenylalanine in biomolecular ...
