Unconventional protein secretion mechanisms represent a significant deviation from the classical endoplasmic reticulum–Golgi pathway. These alternative routes enable proteins—often lacking a ...

A group of international researchers reports the availability of a new “map”’ of every gene, protein, and metabolic pathway required for a cell to efficiently secrete recombinant proteins. The team, ...

snoRNAs were thought simply to guide chemical modifications to rRNAs, but a new technique has revealed a suite of potential functions in protein secretion. A recent research effort from the University ...

Oxidative stress induced by 6-OHDA stimulates autophagy flux, which enhances STX17-mediated autolysosome formation, leading to the degradation of autophagosomal contents. However, in response to ...

Researchers developed a “test tube” so tiny that it can hold a single cell. These vials enabled them to connect protein secretion levels with surface markers and transcriptome data from the same cell.

Uncontrolled secretion of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins such as collagen can lead to excessive scarring and fibrosis, and compromise tissue function. Researchers at the Center for Genomic ...

Protein is the essential macronutrient which helps in building your bones and muscles. It also helps to repair your tissue ...

The concept of a ‘plasmid’ was first introduced by Joshua Lederberg in 1952. Since that time, it has become widely recognized as a circular DNA able to viably function as a carrier for introducing a ...
