Researchers at EMBL Hamburg and collaborators at the Leibniz Research Institute for Molecular Pharmacology (FMP) have mapped ...

Alzheimer's disease and many other forms of neurodegeneration share a common culprit. In these diseases, tau proteins that ...

New study reveals how flu virus hijacks human cells to multiply ...

Early in the pandemic, most research, including our own, focused on designing drugs that could block the virus's spike protein. This was a logical first step, but as we've seen, the virus is a moving ...

Despite vaccines and treatments, SARS-CoV-2—the virus that causes COVID-19—continues to pose a global health threat, driven by new variants and its ability to hijack human cells in ways that still ...

Researchers at EMBL Hamburg and collaborators at the Leibniz Research Institute for Molecular Pharmacology (FMP) have mapped how the influenza A virus rewires infected human cells in unprecedented ...

Proteins regulate a wide range of biological processes inside and outside cells by binding to specific molecular partners. In ...

“A central goal of neuroscience is to develop an understanding of the brain that ultimately describes the mechanistic basis of human cognition and behavior,” said Jeremy Herskowitz, Ph.D., associate ...

Researchers have long known that glycosaminoglycan-binding proteins (HBPs) help control vital processes like cell growth, inflammation, and blood clotting. But a recent discovery has revealed a hidden ...

Unstable proteins are the main drivers of many different heritable diseases, according to a new study, including genetic disorders responsible for the formation of cataracts, and different types of ...
