Cells have always hummed with activity. They make their own energy, package it into molecules like ATP, and spend it ...

Although proteins have very different functions, or specialities, in living cells, they share the general characteristics -- the same universality -- in their motions, say University of Oregon ...

Proteins inside a cell are in constant motion, changing shape continuously in order to carry out their functions. In addition, their multiple component atoms each have individual patterns of motion, ...

Biochemists have detected a surprising, subtle new gyration that protein molecules undergo in the intricate, squirming dance that influences their activity in the cell. The researchers have also ...

Researchers have demonstrated a motion capture-like technology that tracks how proteins fold and change shape using fluorescent probes. The research could lead to improvements in drugs used to treat ...

New research from Michigan State University has shown how proteins known as ZIPs transport metal into living cells. ZIPs are found across the tree of life, playing important roles in health and ...

Relay Therapeutics, which aims to take down difficult cancer drug targets by combining powerful computational methods with emerging lab tools, has raised a whopping $400 million in its third formal ...
