This useful study presents findings on how some antibiotics, which inhibit protein synthesis in bacteria, affect the translation in mitochondrial ribosomes. The authors provide solid evidence that ...

Although the therapeutic potential of eukaryotic protein synthesis inhibitors (for example, cycloheximide) for the treatment of FXS is limited by their toxicity profile, other modulators of ...

In this way, therapeutic agents that affect protein degradation via global mechanisms (such as proteasome inhibition) or pathway-specific mechanisms (such as ubiquitin ligase inhibition ...

Researchers from the University of Washington are developing new antibiotics targeting bacterial methionyl-tRNA synthetase (MetRS). This enzyme is responsible for charging tRNA(met) with methionine ...

An enzyme called EZH2 has an unexpected role in driving aggressive tumor growth in treatment-resistant prostate cancers, ...

An enzyme called EZH2 has an unexpected role in driving aggressive tumor growth in treatment-resistant prostate cancers, ...

Researchers have identified a new role for the enzyme EZH2 in promoting the progression of aggressive, treatment-resistant ...

A new process that is essential to the synthesis of cellular proteins has been discovered by an international research team.

So how does protein synthesis make hair? If you've looked at the activity (or even the text version of the activity), you know how a section of DNA instructs a cell how to make a protein.

A recent study from the University of Würzburg unveiled a key enzyme involved in producing selenoproteins, opening new strategies for treating certain types of cancer in children.

An enzyme called EZH2 has an unexpected role in driving aggressive tumor growth in treatment-resistant prostate cancers, according to a new study by scientists at Weill Cornell Medicine.

we may be able to re-sensitize tumors to androgen receptor inhibitors or make the cancer newly vulnerable to targeted treatments, such as immunotherapies.” In preclinical studies, the team targeted ...
