Myristoylation is a co-translational process catalyzed by N-myristoyltransferases (NMTs) on ribosomes, but its mechanism ...

In the past decade, there has been significant interest in studying the expression of our genetic code down to the level of ...

Protein consumption is vital to our muscles, as it stimulates the process of producing new muscle proteins, also called muscle protein synthesis. A new study suggests that this process is stimulated ...

Cell-free protein synthesis (CFPS) eliminates the need to maintain living cells and allows greater control of reaction conditions than in vivo expression systems but is limited by its sensitivity ...

A so-called pathological protein long associated with Parkinson's disease has been found in a new study to trigger cells to increase protein synthesis, an event that eventually kills the subset of ...

Proteostasis is important for maintaining protein quality by ensuring proper synthesis, folding, and timely degradation, and disruptions can result in the accumulation of harmful protein aggregates.

The quality of a protein - the presence of important amino acids, as well as their availability and digestibility - is a key part of what makes said protein beneficial for health. Some sources, ...
