By doing so, it promotes translation of viral proteins while repressing host protein synthesis. The structure of the NSP3 protein bound to a viral 3′ end sequence reveals how this occurs and ...

Sleeping sickness-causing parasites contain an unusual protein synthesis machinery. A team of researchers has resolved its very special structure for the first time. Ribosomes are among the most ...

Consequently, they are fundamental components of our bodies and vital for physiological functions such as protein synthesis, tissue repair and nutrient absorption. Here we take a closer look at amino ...

Complex Protein Synthesis: CFPS is particularly useful for producing difficult-to-express proteins ... CFPS is a valuable tool for researchers studying protein function, structure, and interactions.

Ribosomal functions beyond protein synthesis have been uncovered over ... with the ribosomal tunnel and rearrange the internal structure, resulting in elongation stalling—known as "translation ...

tRNAs are highly conserved across all domains of life, from bacteria to archaea and eukaryotes. This evolutionary conservation highlights the fundamental role of tRNA in the essential process of ...

The findings highlight the importance of the rate of protein synthesis, in addition to sequence, in determining the structure and function of proteins. “Our results provide an explanation and ...
