Deakin University discovery could lead to new leukaemia treatments
Deakin University scientists have identified a protein that could hold the key to new leukaemia treatments. view more (2006-11-07)
Researchers identify cell pathway in colon cancer
For the one in 18 men and women who will be diagnosed with cancer of the colon and rectum during their lifetime and over 150,000 people diagnosed on a yearly basis, today's genetic research news offers some optimism. view more (2007-02-21)

The first gene-encoded amphibian toxin isolated
Researchers in China have discovered the first protein-based toxin in an amphibian -a 60 amino acid neurotoxin found in the skin of a Chinese tree frog. This finding may help shed more light into both the evolution of amphibians and the evolution of poison. view more (2009-08-18)
Protein discovery could unlock the secret to better TB treatment
UCL scientists have found a protein that could unlock the secret to quicker, more effective treatment of TB by waking TB bacteria in the body. Once the TB bacteria are active again, the disease becomes treatable using common drugs like antibiotics. Scientists believe that uncovering the molecular structure of this protein will lead the way to... view more... (2005-02-28)
University of the Basque Country study on proteins related to Alzheimer
The cause, or at least one of the possible causes, of memory loss amongst Alzheimer sufferers is related to the location of certain proteins. view more (2009-10-16)
New marker for Alzheimer's discovered
Gothenburg researchers have discovered a previously unknown substance in spinal fluid that can be used to diagnose Alzheimer's disease. view more (2009-09-15)
Researchers Examine Protein Vital to Reproduction Process, Regulation May Increase Chances of Pregnancy
In its early and most critical stages, human reproduction requires precise, vital functions. The role of one sperm-delivered protein, which is crucial to the process, is being closely observed by scientists from the United States and Canada. Lab tests in recent years have produced valuable information and hopes of regulating that protein to... view more... (2007-03-20)
New step forward in search for solution to infection puzzle
Scientists at the University of York have helped to reveal more about the way bacteria can attach to human tissues. view more (2008-08-07)
Elevated inflammatory marker may be linked to increased risk of age-related eye disease
High blood levels of C-reactive protein, a substance linked to inflammation, appear to be associated with an increased risk for age-related macular degeneration. view more (2007-10-09)
Folding Proteins on a Computer
Proteins only function when properly folded In order for enzymatic reactions to proceed correctly, the enzyme and substrate must fit together as precisely as a lock and key. The function of the enzyme and protein is determined by the structure of the latter. The chain of amino acids that makes up the protein thus has to fold in a very precise... view more... (2001-01-19)
Protein misprediction uncovered by new technique
A new bioinformatics tool is capable of identifying and correcting abnormal, incomplete and mispredicted protein annotations in public databases. view more (2008-08-27)
Researchers induce HIV-neutralizing antibodies that recognize HIV-1 envelope protein, lipids
For the first time, researchers have experimentally induced antibodies that neutralize HIV-1 and simultaneously recognize both HIV-1 envelope protein and lipids. view more (2009-09-02)
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2004
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for 2004 "for the discovery of ubiquitin-mediated protein degradation" jointly to view more (2004-10-06)
Water is 'designer fluid' that helps proteins change shape, scientists say
Ubiquitous on Earth, water also has been found in comets, on Mars and in molecular clouds in interstellar space. Now, scientists say this common fluid is not as well understood as we thought. view more (2008-08-07)
Neural development protein disproved as marker for schizophrenia
The results of a study published today in the open access journal BMC Psychiatry contradict previous findings and show that Oct-6, a protein involved in neurodevelopment, is normally expressed in the adult brain and cannot be used to identify patients with schizophrenia. view more (2005-10-24)
Study reveals mass migration of mormon crickets driven by hunger, fear
An international team of researchers, including Kent State University professor Dr. Patrick D. Lorch, have revealed the motivating factors behind the seasonal mass migration of Mormon crickets in western North America. view more (2006-03-03)
Scientists unlock secret of what makes plants flower
The study reveals the likely mechanism by which the Arabidopsis plant flowers in response to changes in day length. Earlier research had shown that plants' leaves perceived seasonal changes in day length, which triggers a long-distance signal to travel through the plant's vascular system from the leaf to the shoot apex, where flowering is induced. view more (2007-04-20)
A protein interaction map for a better insight in cancer development
With the completion of the genome sequence of a number of organisms, analysis of the gene products, the proteins, is the on-going challenge. view more (2005-02-28)
Linking 2 molecular pieces of the Alzheimer's puzzle
Researchers have uncovered a biological link between the protein whose mutation causes early-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD) and a gene variant linked to late-onset AD. The researchers said their finding could lead to new approaches to treating AD. view more (2007-10-04)
