Clumps and tangles of tau protein are associated with Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, but tau protein also plays a role in healthy nerve cells. Healthy tau can assemble into an envelope ...

For the first time, researchers identified the function of the CASKIN2 protein, which plays a key role in precise signal ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature Machine Intelligence, researchers developed "DeepGO-SE," a method to predict gene ontology (GO) functions from protein sequences using a large, ...

Researchers have discovered how unstructured segments of surface proteins regulate the biological function of a cell. Their study, published in Nature Communications, sheds new light on the interplay ...

The origins of millions of tiny proteins in our bodies, previously assumed to be useless, have now been discovered. A study published on February 17 in the journal Molecular Cell describes how these ...
