A new microscope is capable of live imaging of biological processes in such detail that moving protein complexes are visible. In Nijmegen, the world's first microscope has been installed that is ...

A research team has discovered how the 'Shethna protein II' protects the nitrogen-fixing enzyme nitrogenase from damage. The oxygen sensor protein could help to make nitrogenase usable in ...

Scientists have discovered that boosting the COX7RP protein enhances cellular energy efficiency and significantly extends ...

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

A newly revealed molecular tug-of-war may have implications for better understanding how a multitude of diseases and ...

We often think of proteins as immutable 3D sculptures. That’s not quite right. Many proteins are transformers that twist and change their shapes depending on biological needs. One configuration may ...

Scientists organize millions of proteins by shape, as predicted by AI, revealing 700,000 new families and some shapes unique ...

Bioluminescence is the natural chemical process of light creation in some living creatures that makes fireflies flicker and some jellyfish glow. Scientists have long been interested in borrowing the ...

In a new study published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, researchers describe the process of creating ...

This might be the beginning of arterial calcifications. It is an elekron microscopy image of calcified material forming deposits. This is the first time it was possible to show a biological process ...
