Scientists have uncovered the chemical mechanism behind protein release from the ribosome, clarifying how all living ...
The discovery of ribosomes dates back to the 1950s, when George Palade first observed dense particles in the cytoplasm of cells using electron microscopy. These particles were later named "ribosomes" ...
To build proteins, the cell makes a copy of DNA, called mRNA. Then, another molecule called a ribosome reads the mRNA, translating it into protein.
The discovery that brain ageing may be driven by jammed-up protein factories could lead to better ways to help us stay sharp ...
Researchers at Fred Hutch Cancer Center invented a new screening method called ReLiC that uses CRISPR-Cas9 to test all the ...
Researchers have used killifish to model accelerated aging, revealing the mechanisms underlying the aging brain.
Ribosome Structure And Function In Protein Synthesis Publication Trend The graph below shows the total number of publications each year in Ribosome Structure And Function In Protein Synthesis.
In parallel, comprehensive reviews of ribosome-associated quality control mechanisms have provided foundational insights into how cells target defective nascent polypeptides for degradation ...
Aging and neurodegeneration are both known to disrupt the production of functional proteins in cells – a process called "proteostasis," or protein homeostasis.
Her team identified a ribosome called P7A7 that with 12 mutations was able to incorporate a β-amino acid during protein synthesis in E. coli (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2016, DOI: 10.1021/jacs.6b01023).
