Several pRb binding proteins complex with pRb through an amino acid sequence called the LXCXE motif. The catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase δ (p125) contains a LXCXE motif.

A series of bacterial receptor proteins have been 'redesigned' by computer so that they bind molecules that are quite different from their natural ligands. The approach might be useful for ...

Pulling proteins through a pore dissolves aggregates. Enzyme-like effects. A simpler form of the model also enables the researchers to see how enzyme-like “saturation” in each step affects the overall ...

A research group have succeeded in greatly increasing the catalytic activity of Rubisco, the enzyme which fixes carbon from carbon dioxide in plant photosynthesis. The research team also ...

Deubiquitinases (DUBs) are enzymes used by cells to trim protein modifications made from the protein ubiquitin, and thereby regulate proteins. Malfunctioning of DUBs could lead to diseases ...

The interpretation of enzymes in the modern industry certainly does not refer to yeast, but to proteins with catalytic functions. As a natural catalyst, enzymes promote various chemical reactions in ...

Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is a type of non-coding RNA that is a crucial component of ribosomes, the cellular machinery responsible for protein synthesis.Non-coding RNA refers to RNA molecules that are not ...

Cornell University materials scientists have incorporated tiny magnetic particles of iron oxide into the walls of porous ceramic structures in a simple "one-pot" self-assembly approach. Such ...

When we digest the food that we eat, our body breaks it up into simpler molecules (breakdown is known as catabolism) which we then use as building blocks to make new proteins and new cells ...
