Researchers at ETH Zurich recently explained the role of a molecular complex that orchestrates the production of proteins in ...

Higher Gene expression Protein synthesis Gene expression is the process by which specific genes are activated to produce a required protein. The process is made up of the transcription and translation ...

Since mRNAs play a key role in protein synthesis in vivo, the use of mRNAs as medicines and for in vitro protein synthesis has been desired. In particular, mRNA therapeutics hold the potential for ...

Every cell depends on proteins to function and stay healthy. These proteins are made inside the cell from amino acids but cannot simply accumulate inside the cell forever.

Proteins are among the most important molecular building blocks of life. They are chains of amino acids assembled in our cells by ribosomes, the molecular "protein factories" of our bodies. The ...

A research team led by Prof. XU Zhiheng from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has identified Tapt1, together with its partner Suco, as important ...

For years, ETH researchers have been investigating a molecular complex that plays a key role in protein synthesis. They have ...
