The structure of teneurins, proteins involved in embryonic development and the nervous system, is more like bacterial toxins than any other human protein.
Research sheds light on the initial phase of infectious disease and potential for prevention of pneumococcal septicaemia...
Researchers have reconstructed the 3.1 Å structure of the herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) B-capsid and built the atomic model, thus expanding the understanding of the assembly mechanism of the capsid...
Study shows that immune cells actually cause dangerous blood vessel blockage, in their rush to contain deadly fungal sepsis...
Scientists have built a computational microscope that can simulate the atomic and subatomic forces that drive molecular interactions...
The new SUSHI technique allows the tiny space full of liquid surrounding brain cells to be labelled...
Scientists have found and characterised the activity of four antibodies produced by the human immune system that targets an important protein found in the respiratory syncytial virus...
A research team has discovered the process - and filmed the actual moment - that can change the body’s response to a dying cell.
Researchers have gained important insights into the role of alpha-synuclein – the protein associated with Parkinson’s disease – in nerve cells and how calcium affects its function. This knowledge is hoped to better arm scientists regarding future treatment for the disease.
Researchers have made an important step forward in the design of drugs that fight the hepatitis B virus, which can cause liver failure and liver cancer...
Scientists have revealed the atomic-level structure of a molecular complex responsible for modifying proteins, paving the way for the development of new medications...
Stem cell-derived retinal cells need primary cilia to support the survival of light-sensing photoreceptors...
A new probe has the potential to help surgeons visualise primary non-fluorescing, low-grade gliomas during surgery to remove the tumour.
The ATR protein has been imaged at ‘near-atomic resolution’, providing greater insight into its activation in DNA repair.
