Researchers have discovered how unstructured segments of surface proteins regulate the biological function of a cell. Their study, published in Nature Communications, sheds new light on the interplay ...

Depression leads to complex changes in protein regulation in the brain and other tissues. Reproducibility and data integration remain challenges in this field. We systematically integrated proteomic ...

The list below offers a representative sample of the courses you can expect in the study of cellular and molecular biology at DePauw. From theoretical foundations to practical experiences, these ...

The molecule cAMP, which plays essential roles in mammalian cells, is less well understood in plants. In a new Science Advances paper, researchers from the Institute of Science and Technology Austria ...

Single-molecule imaging techniques have provided unprecedented insights into functional changes in composition and conformation across diverse biological systems. As with other biophysical methods, ...

"This is the first step toward creating a molecule that could, in principle, replace a protein that's pathogenic (disease-causing) while still retaining its normal function," said study leader Lukasz ...

While the central dogma of molecular biology outlines the linear flow of genetic information from DNA to RNA to proteins (black lines), glycomics introduces a “3rd code of life”—glycans—that operates ...
