During brain development, neurons can regulate their movement until they reach their final destination thanks to a "molecular switch" involving the protein Teneurin 4 (Ten4).

Trying to untangle a knot in a mess of strings can be frustrating and time-consuming. But not so for molecular ...

L-arginine helps protein droplets stay stable and prevents fibril formation linked to Alzheimer’s. This process occurs at droplet surfaces, offering a potential therapeutic target.

A UCLA-led international research collaboration has unveiled a new technology that may help scientists better understand how ...

An international team led by researchers at QUT has used artificial intelligence to create tiny "smart" proteins that switch on only when they detect a chosen target. Published in Nature Biotechnology ...
