Certain DNA sequences can form structures other than the canonical double helix. These alternative DNA conformations—referred ...

Researchers have uncovered the 3D structure of RBP3, a key protein in vision, revealing how it transports retinoids and fatty ...

Proteins form the structural and functional backbone of the cell, and any perturbation in their synthesis can disrupt normal ...

It will be of interest to scientists focusing on SARS CoV2 protein structure and dynamics ... This site, also found in some other coronaviruses, binds free fatty acids such as linoleic and oleic acid, ...

Scientists have for the first time looked deep into the protein structure that may determine our vision—and discovered that it is much more dynamic than previously thought. RBP3 not only changes its ...

NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover has detected the largest organic (carbon-containing) molecules ever found on the red planet. The discovery is one of the most significant findings in the search for ...

Article Views are the COUNTER-compliant sum of full text article downloads since November 2008 (both PDF and HTML) across all institutions and individuals. These metrics are regularly updated to ...

These results are the starting point to qualitatively relate the two different responses with the amino acid structure: high solubility in the case of short-chain amino acids (glycine, alanine, valine ...

Amino acids are the building blocks that form polypeptides and ultimately proteins. Consequently, they are fundamental components of our bodies and vital for physiological functions such as protein ...
