(Nanowerk News) Researchers from Tohoku University and Kyoto University have successfully developed a DNA-based molecular controller that autonomously directs the assembly and disassembly of molecular ...

Stress granules are droplet-like protein hubs that temporarily shield fragile RNA from cellular stresses such as toxins. VCP is a protein essential for breaking up stress granules and has been linked ...

SNARE proteins are essential for intracellular membrane fusion of eukaryotes. Their assembly into stable four-helix bundles bridges membranes and may provide the energy for initiating membrane fusion.

The nucleus is surrounded by the nuclear envelope (NE), which is formed by two juxtaposed membranes, termed the inner and outer nuclear membranes. A protein meshwork of intermediate filament proteins ...

DURHAM, N.C. -- Scientists have deciphered the genetic code that instructs proteins to either self-assemble or disassemble in response to environmental stimuli, such as changes in temperature, ...

Scientists have deciphered the genetic code that instructs proteins to either self-assemble or disassemble in response to environmental stimuli, such as changes in temperature, salinity or acidity.
