Researchers found lowering TPPP3 may make ovarian cancer more sensitive to cisplatin, improving chemotherapy’s effectiveness.

UCLA scientists have characterized the structure and function of a key survival protein in breast cancer cells that helps explain how these tumors resist environmental stress and thrive in acidic, low ...

After nearly four decades of research, Mayo Clinic scientists have revealed the molecular structures of protein kinase C beta ...

Tiny robots built from biomolecules and nanoparticles have long promised a more precise way to deliver drugs, run chemical ...

A major goal of cancer biology is to understand the mechanisms driven by somatically acquired mutations. Two distinct methodologies—one analyzing mutation clustering within protein sequences and 3D ...

University of Iowa-led study has revealed the unexpected structure adopted by the DNA repair protein RAD52 as it binds and protects replicating DNA in dividing cells. A University of Iowa-led study ...

Phages, viruses that infect bacteria, could be genetically manipulated to destroy cancerous cells using the immunity we have ...

All living organisms on Earth have evolved mechanisms to counteract the effects of gravity. In space, however, shear forces, buoyancy-driven convection, and hydrostatic pressure are either eliminated ...
