E1s and E2s first work generically across the cell to activate and prepare ubiquitin for attachment. E3 ligases then ensure that the tag is added to the right protein; as such, hundreds of specific ...

BYU Professor David Thomson is working to understand a chemical pathway in human muscles that may explain the effects of exercise.

These useful findings assigned a novel functional implication of histone acylation, crotonylation. Although the mechanistic insights have been provided in great detail regarding the role of the YEATS2 ...

Pharmaceutical ads are difficult to avoid in American television programming and a growing number of them promote a class of medications called JAK inhibitors, using an acronym that assumes the ...

The biochemical profile and milk fats/proteins in Saanen and Nubian goats from Los Asmoles, Colima was carried out. Milk fat, milk protein, fat/protein ratio, glucose (GLU), cholesterol (COL), ...

New work could help produce more effective future anti-aging treatments. The way the body ages could be more resilient than previously thought, a new study suggests. Published in the Journal of ...

Protein farts is a term used to describe gas that is excessively smelly due to increasing the amount of protein in the diet. While there is limited research to suggest protein itself causes gas, ...

Misregulation of protein–protein interactions (PPIs) underlies many diseases; hence, molecules that stabilize PPIs, known as molecular glues, are promising drug candidates. Identification of novel ...
