Cell: Scientists Found another Role of Enzyme Superoxide Dismutase
Since 1960s, the initial discovery of Superoxide dismutase (SOD1), an enzyme that was believed having solo role in protecting living cells against damage from free radicals by scientists. The enzyme is present in all living cells, from the most ancient bacteria to every cell in the human body. ...
Scientists Found a New Solution to Boom Long-lasting Memory—Molecular mTORC2
If we want to remember something for a long time, we need to through a procedure in which the long-term memory starts with a short-term memory and consolidation, such as repetition, as least that is what older studies showed. Several days ago, some researchers found another solution, a critical mech...
Scientists Found Novel Monoclonal Antibody for CLL
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is one kind of blood cancer. It is the second most common type of leukemia in adults. It is also the most common type of blood cancer in America. According to authentic statistics, it is estimated that 16,060 men and women will be diagnosed with and 4,580 men a...
Scientists Unveiled the Mysterious Procedure in Human DNA Replication
As an illustration, the picture represents a crucial molecular player in the process, by a hand, which is loading the sliding clamp ring onto DNA. According to the report of eLife on April 2, 2013, the long mysterious mechanism in human DNA replication has been identified for the first t...
PNAS: Scientists Developed New Approach to Resolve Protein Structure
Recently scientists developed a new strategy that can be used to study protein structures that cant be realized previously. The new strategy combined computational modeling and experimental physicochemical techniques. The results were published on the journal of Proceedings of the Nat...
Scientists Innovatively Modified an Approach to Dissect Kinases
The top is a structural model of uniRapR domain which binds small molecule rapamycin. The bottom left depicts inactive state of the protein of interest modified with uniRapR domain. Binding of rapamycin and uniRapR reactivates the protein (bottom right). The approach mentioned here i...
PNAS: Scientists Unveiled a Novel Feature of DEAD-box Proteins
As reported on the Early Edition of the Proceeding of the National Academy of Science on Apr. 29, 2013, scientists have uncovered how DEAD-box proteins and its cofactors can specifically work on other proteins with nonspecific biochemical activity. DEAD-box proteins are a large class of RNA-depen...
Scientists Found the Key Protein of P. Aeruginosa Infecting Humans
Pseudomonas aeruginosa, an environmental pathogen, usually exists in soil, water and other environment outside of the body. However, it causes common hospital acquired infection. According to yesterdays mBio report, scientists have discovered the previously unknown virulence factor inP. a...
Scientists Reveal the Detailed Structure of Protein C4BP for Pharmaceutical Transport
Protein C4BP, the complement component 4 binding protein, is a part of our innate immune system which serves as the first countermeasures against invading pathogens. It could defend against bacterial in the blood. But in order to find reveal how exactly the protein acts on other molecules, sci...
Scientists Found a New Method to Understand Ion Channel Proteins
Photograph of integrated amplifiers. The well supporting the membrane and channel is noted in the figure. Ion channel are key regulators of cellular function. They are a critical group of important membrane protein drug targets and account for the activity of 10% of the currently marketed drugs...
Scientists Identified a New Role for EGFR
Protein encoded by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is a member of the protein kinase superfamily. This protein is a receptor for members of the epidermal growth factor family. EGFR is a cell surface protein that binds to epidermal growth factor. Bind...
Scientists Revealed How Genes Translate into Proteins on Molecular Level
In the picture, the green presents the messenger RNA, the brown presents the elongation factor EF-G, and the four sequential positions of transfer RNA as it moves from right to left during translocation (dark blue, light blue, red, and gray). Have you ever wondered how ribosome translates gen...
Scientists Uncover the Crystal Structures of Class B GPCRs and Expand Their Pharmaceutical Importance
GPCRs, a kind of membrane receptors, serve as extracellular signal sensors, including photons, ions, small organic molecules, even the whole proteins. About one third of known drugs use GPCRs to be active targets. Currently, all the published GPCR structures come from class A. But recently the crys...
Scientists Found New Role of Deacetylase SIRT1
In previous studies, deacetylase SIRT1 has been identified the ability to repair damaged DNA. In addition to this, scientists recently found a new ability of SIRT1help to stable the genomes of experimental mice with neurodegenerative diseases, for example, Alzheimer's disease and amyotrophic later...
Scientists Identified the Special Receptor of Baculovirus for the First Time
Previous studies have identified baculovirus receptors. But recently a report recorded an important finding how baculovirus entered and interacted with human cells. The novel receptor is syndecan- 1 receptor. The study provides some ideas for the understanding of viru...
Scientists Successfully Decode the Structure of Protein LIMP-2
It was unknown for people the structure and functions of protein LIMP-2 during the past days. We only know it is both important for humans and animals and it was mostly found in the lysosomes of the cells where it ensures that a specific enzyme reaches them. Recently a Germany chemist reveals what t...
Scientists Identified the Role of Osteopontin for Mesenchymal Stem Cells
As a kind of stem cells , mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) play an important role in the repair of damaged tissue due to its differentiation potential, and it has broad application prospects in the field of regenerative medicine. In recent years, many studies agree ...
Scientists Revealed the Mystery of Cell Proliferation
According to scientific materials, before cells divide, they create so much genetic material that it must be twined onto spools, proteins called histones, before the two new cells can split apart. Moreover, there histones must multiply at the same moment that cell doubles its DNA. If not, the new DN...
