Scientists used IBM's R2 Heron quantum processor to predict the secondary protein structure of a 60-nucleotide-long mRNA sequence.

Transfer RNA (tRNA) is a small, non-coding RNA molecule that plays a crucial role in protein synthesis. It acts as an adaptor molecule, translating the genetic code in messenger RNA (mRNA) into the ...

Protein powders are everywhere—lining store shelves, packed in gym bags, featured on smoothie shop menus and even stirred ...

Protein synthesis and degradation represent substantial costs during plant growth. To obtain a quantitative measure of the rate of protein synthesis and degradation, we supplied ¹³CO₂ to intact ...

Structural basis for translational shutdown and immune evasion by the Nsp1 protein of SARS-CoV-2. Science, 2020; eabc8665 DOI: 10.1126/science.abc8665 ...

Long-standing research has shown that consuming dietary protein stimulates muscle protein synthesis, which is a critical factor for building and maintaining skeletal muscle mass. Growing evidence ...

Plant-based foods also have all the essential amino acids, the building blocks of muscles, but have lower concentrations of some that are important for protein synthesis. But in recent years, more ...
