Yeast cells are widely used to study G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), a large group of cell surface proteins in humans. However, several of these proteins lose their function when introduced into ...

Proteins perform a vast array of functions in the cell of every living organism with critical roles in biological processes. There are numerous chemical switches that control the structure and the ...

The chaperonin system is pivotal in maintaining cellular proteostasis through its ATP-dependent mediation of protein folding. Among these, the TRiC/CCT complex has emerged as a key molecular machine ...

Proteins perform a vast array of functions in the cell of every living organism with critical roles in almost every biological process. Not only do they run our metabolism, manage cellular signaling ...

Calcium sensor proteins are fundamental modulators of photoreceptor cell function, where they detect fluctuations in intracellular Ca²⁺ levels to finely tune the phototransduction cascade. These ...

A new artificial intelligence (AI) tool that draws logical inferences about the function of unknown proteins promises to help scientists unravel the inner workings of the cell. Developed by KAUST ...

Cell biology researchers at the Department of Biology at the University of Copenhagen have made a discovery about two ciliary ...
