The Triple Helix stands back to look at the whole of ... Amino acid sequence does not fully determine protein structure and thus function; instead, protein structure is influenced by a diverse ...

This valuable study presents a thorough analysis of protein abundance changes caused by amino acid substitutions, using structural context to improve predictive accuracy. By deriving substitution ...

The protein capture domain consists of one helix of a leucine zipper coiled coil. The complementary helix is expressed as a fusion with the target protein of interest. Owing to the extremely tight ...

For the first time, however, the structure of this protective mantle and its interactions with the virus' RNA have been ...

New research shows how SMC proteins make long loops in our DNA and also put twists into the loops as they form, helping to ...

In 1948, Linus Pauling discovered that many proteins take the shape of an alpha helix, spiraled like a spring coil. In 1950, biochemist Erwin Chargaff found that the arrangement of nitrogen bases ...

This process of protein synthesis occurs in two stages ... The two strands of the DNA helix are unzipped by breaking of the weak Hydrogen bonds between base pairs. This unwinding of the helix ...
