The collection of proteins within a cell determines its health and function. Proteins are responsible for nearly every task of cellular life, including cell shape and inner organization ...

Protein function predictions are bioinformatic methods (i.e. involving computation using software) that aim to predict the function of a protein. Protein function analyses use protein sequences ...

The three-dimensional shape of a protein determines its function. This is because proteins form attachments and interact with many other molecules and structures inside organisms. The shape of a ...

are connected together to produce proteins All cell types Plasmids? Contains genes that help cell to function, eg genes for antibiotic resistance Bacterial cell ? Compartment in cell where DNA is ...

My laboratory studies the regulatory and structural roles of mRNAs in the cytoplasm. Specifically, we investigate how 3′UTRs regulate protein functions in a manner that is independent of protein ...

or risk damaging protein function due to non-specific modifications. Most challenging of all has been the selective modification of specific proteins in live biological systems. To address these ...

Researchers at the Leibniz Institute on Aging—Fritz Lipmann Institute (FLI) in Jena have discovered a new function of the DNA repair protein ATR in regulating mitochondrial homeostasis.
