Proteins, one of the smallest building blocks of life on Earth, hold promise for answering some of biology's biggest questions. Consisting of amino acids strung together into peptide chains, these ...

A new single-cell technology is giving scientists their clearest view yet of immune cell behavior—capturing not just genetic intent, but real-time activity. By measuring RNA and proteins ...

Protein complexes are important for the majority of vital processes in the cell and human body, such as producing energy, copying DNA and regulating the immune system. Composed of groups of connected ...

Protein barcodes are short, information- rich stretches of amino acids encoded by DNA sequences that can be added to the DNA sequences coding for proteins. Then, when protein barcode DNA and protein ...

A new technology to enable the simultaneous performance of proteomics and genomics has been developed. An innovative new technique from the Andalusian Centre for Molecular Biology and Regenerative ...

Phylo-Plex, a new computational method, has been developed by Wellcome Sanger Institute scientists and their collaborators to allow cost-effective and scalable DNA sequencing of pathogens in ...

Studying T cells, the immune cells most responsible for responding to infections and cancers, just received a significant boost in the form of a new technique from St. Jude Children's Research ...

Protein engineering is a field primed for artificial intelligence research. Each protein is made up of amino acids; to optimize a protein function, researchers modify proteins by switching out one of ...
