In fact, each gene in cellular DNA contains the code for a unique protein structure. Not only are these proteins assembled with different amino acid sequences, but they also are held together by ...

Fruits and vegetables, as a type of food, are characterized by the presence of health-beneficial components, such as dietary ...

The sequence of amino acids in the chain determines how the chain will fold up to make the protein, so different proteins have different three-dimensional shapes. The three-dimensional shape of a ...

New research is more closely linking obesity to dementia. Higher levels of leptin, a hormone that helps maintain normal body ...

Stupp’s team combined a bioactive peptide with chemically modified hyaluronic acid particles to create nanoscale fiber bundles that mimic cartilage structure. This scaffold was designed to ...

Nearly half of all degrees awarded to Smith College students are in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM)—compared to 42% of women graduates nationally. At the heart of Smith’s learning is ...

Glycans play an important role in modulating the interactions between natural killer cells and antibodies to fight pathogens and harmful cells.

The specific function of a protein is determined by how its amino acids interact with each other and aggregate into a three-dimensional structure. The research team used molecular dynamics ...

Paprika oleoresin (PO), extracted from chili peppers, is renowned for its vibrant color and beneficial health properties, ...
