PTIR calculates the rates at which originally monomeric proteins are transformed into aggregates at various temperatures under initial-rate settings. Utilizing SMSLS for identical conditions generates ...
Yeast prions are increasingly recognised as pivotal agents in non-Mendelian inheritance, whereby protein conformations rather than nucleic acids dictate heritable traits. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae ...
Protein aggregation is typical of various neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and prion diseases such as Creutzfeld-Jakob disease. A research team has now used new in vitro and ...
Raghu R. Chivukula, MD, Ph.D., a physician-investigator in the Departments of Medicine & Surgery and the Center for Genomic Medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, is ...
Could measuring protein clumps in our cells be a new way to find out our risk of getting age-related diseases? Professor Dorothee Dormann and Professor Edward Lemke of Johannes Gutenberg University ...
Liquid-liquid phase separation is not a precursor to formation of amyloid fibrils, a pathological hallmark of Parkinson's disease, shows study. Rather, the formation of protein into liquid droplets ...
A team of researchers from Mass General Brigham led by Raghu Chivukla, MD, PhD released a new study linking protein aggregation to altered RNA processing in genetic forms of neurodegeneration.
