New research reveals that Alzheimer's disease may impair nerve function not by reducing myelin, but by altering the proteins ...

Tau protein is essential for microtubule stability and neuronal function. The protein’s disfunction is linked to several ...

Cornell researchers have found a new and potentially more accurate way to see what proteins are doing inside living ...

Imagine the magnificent glaciers of Greenland, the eternal snow of the Tibetan high mountains, and the permanently ice-cold ...

By tracking the movement of RNA molecules inside the nucleolus using advanced imaging and genomics techniques, the new method ...

This useful study presents a biologically realistic, large-scale cortical model of the rat's non-barrel somatosensory cortex, investigating synaptic plasticity of excitatory connections under varying ...

Motor protein structure describes the structure of molecular motors capable of moving along a cytoskeletal filament. In many cases, motor proteins transport cargo in a particular direction along ...

When Alphabet announced in 2021 that its AlphaFold AI could predict the structure of almost every known protein, it was a major story, not just in the pharma world, but beyond.

Rational drug design depends on the knowledge of the three-dimensional (3D) structure of complexes between proteins and lead compounds of low molecular weight. A novel nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) ...
