A group of researchers from Australia and China recently demonstrated how SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein subunit 1 can induce a pro-inflammatory signaling pathway (leading to cytokines deployment and ...

Glycoproteins play critical roles in brain development, including particularly neuronal and glial differentiation. However, little is known about the regulation of glycoprotein synthesis in developing ...

As of March 9, 2022, the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which is the virus responsible for the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), has infected over 450 million ...

Engineering cellular biology — minus the actual cell — is a growing area of interest in biotechnology and synthetic biology. It’s known as cell-free protein synthesis, or CFPS, and it has potential to ...

In the United States, 174,650 new cases of prostate cancer (PCa) were diagnosed and 31,620 PCa-related deaths were reported in 2019, making PCa the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths of men ...

Autoimmune disease is an abnormal immune response to the self and is prevented by a mechanism called tolerance. Researchers have identified a pathway that regulates B cell tolerance -- two proteins, ...

New work could provide sustainable ways to make chemicals, medicines and biomaterials. Engineering cellular biology, minus the actual cell, is a growing area of interest in biotechnology and synthetic ...
