Protein synthesis in nerve cell dendrites underlies long-term memory formation in the brain, among other functions. Knowing how proteins are made to order at the synapse can help researchers ...

Date: September 29, 2022 Source: European Molecular Biology Laboratory Summary: New research shows at atomic detail how antibiotics affect the process of protein production inside bacteria.

Now, for the first time, scientists led by Julia Mahamid's group at EMBL Heidelberg have visualized at atomic detail how antibiotics affect the process of protein production inside bacterial cells.

Murine study finds eIF2A dependence emerges only after malignant transformation, suggesting a therapeutic window that may spare healthy tissues.

Higher Gene expression Protein synthesis Gene expression is the process by which specific genes are activated to produce a required protein. The process is made up of the transcription and ...

Every living cell relies on proteins in order to function and the process of protein synthesis – translation – is critical for survival. Bacteria are no exception, with molecular machines ...

Cells express their genes by converting the genetic message into protein. This process of protein synthesis occurs in two stages - transcription and translation. When a gene is to be expressed ...

Yet, there was no knowledge of the protein synthesis process in protozoan organisms, a group of single-celled organisms that are often parasitic to humans and other mammals.
