Membrane protein transport and quality control are central to yeast cell homeostasis, ensuring that proteins reach their correct cellular destinations while aberrant or damaged proteins are ...

Ammonium transport proteins, integral to the Mep/Amt/Rh family, constitute a fundamental component of nitrogen regulation across all domains of life. These specialised membrane channels facilitate the ...

To ensure that protein production in our cells runs smoothly, the protein complex NAC slows down the rate of protein ...

Every cell depends on proteins to function and stay healthy. These proteins are made inside the cell from amino acids but ...

Observing proteins with precision in living cells has been a challenge for researchers across various disciplines. Now, Stefan Kubicek, PhD, and his team at CEMM Research Center for Molecular Medicine ...

When a cell receives a message from outside, it generates a molecule called cyclic AMP (cAMP) to relay this message. To ensure the signal reaches the correct effector without triggering pathways ...

Proteomics is the large-scale study of proteins, particularly their structures and functions. It involves the systematic identification, quantification, and analysis of the entire protein complement ...

In Greek mythology, Proteus, son of Poseidon and prophetic shepherd of sea-beasts, could foretell the future. The elusive sea god was difficult to capture as he assumed many forms—a lion, a serpent, ...

Protein engineering is a powerful biotechnological process that focuses on creating new enzymes or proteins and improving the functions of existing ones by manipulating their natural macromolecular ...

This fully updated volume explores a wide array of new and state-of-the-art tools and resources for protein function prediction. Beginning with in-depth overviews of essential underlying computational ...
