Center for Digital Business explores mobile Napster
Center for Digital Business, CDA, at Ume'å University, is presenting new research at a conference in Pisa, Italy. This research deals with the prototype system FolkMusic, which is a mobile platform for distributing music in wireless networks. The work is being presented at a conference titled... view more (2002-09-23)

Is there more to prion protein than mad cow disease?
Prion protein, a form of protein that triggers BSE, is associated with other brain diseases in cattle, raising the possibility of a significant increase in the range of prion disease.   view more (2008-09-30)

The first autism disease genes
The autistic disorder, a neurodevelopmental disease first described in 1943, represents a challenge for treatment and a puzzle for research. Alongside Asperger syndrome, a milder form of the disorder, autism is classified in the continuum of various Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), all of which are... view more (2008-07-09)

Ruminating cows receive digestive aid
Scientists at the Institute of Grassland and Environmental Research are developing new plant breeding techniques which can improve the efficiency of cow digestion and reduce pollution at the same time. Grass isn't the easiest food to digest, and even cows appear to have difficulty doing it... view more (2004-04-01)

Scientists identify interacting proteins key to melanoma development, treatment
Researchers have discovered how a mole develops into melanoma by showing the interaction of two key proteins involved in 60-70 percent of tumors. The Penn State scientists also demonstrate that therapeutic targeting of these proteins is necessary for drugs to effectively treat this deadly form of... view more (2008-05-07)

Rapid movements of living biomolecules visualised
Dutch researcher Chris Molenaar has made the rapid movements of proteins, DNA and RNA molecules visible in living cells. With this technique researchers can study the dynamics of biomolecules in their natural environment. Molenaar developed a method which makes it possible to follow the movements... view more (2003-06-24)

MIT engineers show how tiny cell proteins generate force to 'walk'
MIT researchers have shown how a cell motor protein exerts the force to move, enabling functions such as cell division.   view more (2008-11-25)

Gladstone study links Alzheimer's with toxic protein fragments
New research from the Gladstone Institute of Neurological Disease details exactly how a mutant form of the protein apolipoprotein E, also known as apoE, is a causative factor for Alzheimer's disease.   view more (2005-12-15)

Oregon team zeroes in on RNA-binding in myotonic dystrophy
University of Oregon researchers have shed new light on the function of an RNA-regulating protein known as muscleblind, which when it misbehaves and binds to rogue RNA can lead to disease affecting roughly one in 8,000 people.   view more (2007-11-08)

UCLA identifies new molecule involved in the body's processing of dietary fat
UCLA investigators have identified a new molecule that may help regulate the delivery of fats to cells for energy and storage.   view more (2007-04-04)

Two Proteins May Be Survival Markers in Some Breast Cancers
New research suggests that the presence or absence of two proteins may be important markers for long-term survival in some breast-cancer patients.   view more (2007-11-14)

Protein splicing upsets the DNA colinearity paradigm
Understanding medical research problems often relies on the direct, linear relationship between the sequence of a protein and the DNA encoding that protein.   view more (2006-09-08)

Coming Soon To Your Mobile - TV and Internet Access
People on the move will soon be able to access TV programmes and the internet on dual mode mobile phones, thanks to a highly praised, cross European project made possible by a grant of EUR3.71 million from the Information Society Technology (IST) Programme of the European Union's Fifth Framework... view more (2004-05-25)

Lessons from yeast: A possible cure for Parkinson's disease?
Parkinson disease (PD) is a debilitating and lethal neurodegenerative disease, for which there is currently no cure. It is caused by the progressive loss of nerve cells that produce the chemical dopamine and is characterized by the accumulation of abnormal aggregates of a protein called alpha-syn... view more (2008-08-15)

Researchers discover a new genetic cause of Alzheimer's disease
Researchers from the Flanders Interuniversity Institute for Biotechnology (VIB) connected to the University of Antwerp are the first to show that the quantity of amyloid protein in brain cells is a major risk factor for Alzheimer's disease.   view more (2006-04-20)

U of M researchers determine structure of protein that mutates DNA of the AIDS virus HIV-1
Understanding the structure of proteins involved in inhibiting HIV-1 infection could help in the battle against AIDS, and University of Minnesota researchers have taken a crucial step in that direction.   view more (2008-02-21)
