Researchers report that carboxylic acids, functional groups contained in biomolecules, drugs, and materials can be readily modified by light-induced organic reactions using an aminocyclopropenone.

Sperm play a critical role in the creation of new life, delivering essentially half of the genetic material required. The success of this process relies on the generation of a developmentally ...

For years, ETH researchers have been investigating a molecular complex that plays a key role in protein synthesis. They have ...

There are many typs of protein modification, which are mostly catalyzed by enzymes that recognize specific target sequences in proteins. These modifications regulate protein folding by targeting ...

Evidence continues to pile up that filaments of aggregated tau form unique strains in different tauopathies. Why is that? A paper published online in Cell on February 6 suggests that ...
