Journal of Experimental Botany, Vol. 50, No. 331 (FEBRUARY 1999), pp. 165-174 (10 pages) Vacuolar proteins are synthesized and translocated into the endoplasmic reticulum and transported to the ...

In Lewis Carroll's "Through the Looking-Glass," Alice is stuck in a never-ending race with the Red Queen yet never gains a ...

In the process of protein synthesis there is a “stochastic” component, i.e., involving random chance, which influences the time the process takes. This aspect has been investigated by two research ...

Rare-earth metals are essential parts of electronic components in phones, vehicles, displays, and wind turbines. A new study shows that a recently discovered protein from bacteria outperforms many ...

The sequence element of box II (GTGTGGTTAATATG) is a regulatory component of a light-responsive element present within the upstream region of pea rbcS-3A. The nuclear protein GT-1 was defined ...

New structures discovered within cilia show a relationship between certain proteins and juvenile myoclonic epilepsy. The discovery sheds new light on the microstructure of cilia. Cilia are microscopic ...

A protein that binds rare-earth elements could be used to extract and separate these valuable metals from low-grade sources, such as coal ash or electronic waste (ACS Cent. Sci. 2021, DOI: ...

Rush hour never ceases at the nucleus’ border. Gene products begin their lives in the nucleus as strands of mRNA that ship out into the cytoplasm, where they serve as templates for protein synthesis.

What makes prions adopt toxic, self-perpetuating conformations? The question has baffled researchers for years. In the May 9 Nature online, Peter Tessier and Susan Lindquist from Boston’s Whitehead ...
