A study using Ribo-STAMP technology reveals that protein production in brain cells varies significantly between different types of neurons, offering new insights into autism and memory.
Researchers applied the Ribo-STAMP method to map protein translation in nearly 20,000 mouse hippocampal cells. The study ...
In a new study, published in Cell, researchers describe a newfound mechanism for creating proteins in a giant DNA virus, comparable to a mechanism in eukaryotic cells. The finding challenges the dogma ...
This study reports an important and novel finding that TENT5A, an enzyme involved in fine-tuning poly(A) tail length on selected mRNAs, is required for proper enamel mineralization in mice. The ...
Neurons have a "hibernation mode." Scientists discover how brain cells use RNA tentacles to lock their protein factories together to survive when energy is low.
Leveraging its integrated "design-synthesis-quality control" system, Creative Biolabs is overcoming bottlenecks in mRNA ...
The brain's ability to carry out everything from forming memories to coordinating movement depends on its cells producing the right proteins at the right time. But directly measuring this protein ...
In an experimental trial, a personalized mRNA vaccine was tested in 14 individuals with an aggressive form of breast cancer. It trained immune cells to target cancer-specific mutant proteins, inducing ...

The life cycle of a protein

A protein’s life is anything but simple. Discover how transcription, translation, folding, modification, and degradation work together to preserve proteome integrity.
This week in the scientific process: researchers reported the first-ever shark sighted in Antarctic waters. Penguins beware!
The brain's ability to do everything from forming memories to coordinating movement relies on its cells producing the right proteins at the right time.
