Successful protein translocation. The modified α-hemolysin successfully traveled to the cell membrane and embedded itself. Following this, ...

Protein translocation across cellular membranes is crucial for moving proteins to specific locations and their extracellular secretion. Recently, researchers from Japan have used high-speed atomic ...

A new artificial intelligence model can improve the process of drug and vaccine discovery by predicting how efficiently ...

Proteins with N-terminal targeting signals are transported across the inner mitochondrial membrane by the presequence translocase. To drive precursor translocation, the Hsp70-import motor ...

Impaired protein translocation into mitochondria is deleterious for the cell and leads to a number of cellular stress responses. How the cell prevents an accumulation of such clogged TOM complex ...

A newly developed luciferase-based reporter can detect problems in protein translocation and disulfide bond formation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Inspired by natural mechanisms found in ...

All the latest science news on protein translation from Phys.org. Find the latest news, advancements, and breakthroughs.

Scientists have discovered that tRNAs can determine how long mRNAs exist in a cell, causing some messages to be stabilized and translated into more protein, while directing others to be degraded and ...

Importantly, these proteins were N-termini enriched which underscores that the method really does capture the intermediate pep-tRNA pool during translation. ", says Prof. Taguchi when quizzed on ...

The process of "translation" in protein synthesis involves formation of a peptide bond between two amino acids that are attached to two distinct transfer RNAs (tRNAs). For long, scientists have been ...
