Scientists have identified the role of an ion channel that plays a key part in how cells break down and recycle components, a ...
Lysosomes are the recycling centers of human cells. Larger molecules are broken down inside the membrane-enclosed vesicles. Malfunctions can lead to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's.
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute one of the largest families of membrane proteins and play a pivotal role in translating extracellular signals into diverse intracellular responses. A key ...
When it comes to neurodegenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and certain forms of dementia, ...
Researchers at Northwestern University have discovered a concealed molecular "control switch" within a protein that plays a ...
This fully updated volume explores a wide array of new and state-of-the-art tools and resources for protein function prediction. Beginning with in-depth overviews of essential underlying computational ...
Researchers decipher the function of an ion channel involved in cellular degradation processes and create new possibilities for Parkinson’s therapies.
