proteins

(University of Texas at Austin) A new physical form of proteins developed by researchers at the University of Texas at Austin could drastically improve treatments for cancer and other diseases, as well as overcome some of the largest challenges in therapeutics: Delivering drugs to patients safely, easily and more effectively.

NEW YORK (AP) -- A scientist who discovered a powerful malaria drug and two others who illuminated how proteins fold within cells have won prestigious medical awards....

(BioMed Central) Loss of muscle mass is not only associated with disease, such as HIV and cancer, but also with the normal aging process.

New research, published in BioMed Central's open-access journal Immunity and Aging, shows that nine proteins, isolated from blood of men, alter with age but that the profile of only some of these proteins can be reversed by testosterone treatment.

(Van Andel Research Institute) Van Andel Research Institute scientists have determined how two proteins required for the initiation and development of prostate cancer interact at the molecular level, which could lead to improved treatments for the disease.

(Emory University) DNA's packaging can be just as important and intricate as the information in the DNA itself.

A "histone code" is thought to lie behind the pattern of chemical modifications on histones, the spool-like proteins around which DNA is wound inside the cell.

The structures of two enzymes that modify histones give clues towards an understanding of the histone code.

(Purdue University) A Purdue University researcher has discovered that the absence of certain proteins needed for proper cell duplication can lead to cancer.

(Medical College of Georgia) Cancer and Alzheimer's have excess protein in common and scientists say learning more about how proteins are made and eliminated will lead to better treatment for both.
