Researchers at ETH Zurich recently explained the role of a molecular complex that orchestrates the production of proteins in our cells. They now show that this complex also controls the processing of ...

Proteins, the pillars of cellular function, often assemble into 'complexes' to fulfill their functions. A study reveals why this assembly often begins during the very process of protein synthesis or ...

Capturing a protein being made Keenan has spent most of his career focusing on how proteins are made inside cells, especially the machinery involved in how ribosomes- machines that translate genetic ...

Before a newly synthesized protein can undergo folding, it must be processed and transported to the correct location within the cell after emerging from the ribosome. N-terminal acetylation ...
