Researchers at Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI) and the Cancer Research Institute at Kanazawa University have ...

Protein misfolding and aggregation are key features observed in numerous neurodegenerative conditions, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. The oligomers formed during the aggregation process ...

Temporary protein-protein bonds are essential for processes including enzymatic reactions, antibody binding, and response to medication. Being able to accurately characterize these bonds is important ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich recently explained the role of a molecular complex that orchestrates the production of proteins in our cells. They now show that this complex also controls the processing of ...

Misfolded proteins can appear as small aggregates, soluble monomers, or large insoluble inclusion bodies. While the fundamental biophysical mechanisms that cause cytotoxicity are not fully understood, ...
