Proteoforms, the diverse molecular variants of proteins, are key to understanding cellular functions, disease mechanisms, and ...

Explore advances in protein imaging techniques and spatial proteomics. Learn how modern imaging tools reveal protein dynamics and organization in cells.

Proteins are the building blocks of life, involved in virtually every biological process. Understanding how proteins interact with each other is crucial for deciphering the complexities of cellular ...

EPFL researchers have developed a light-based method that can produce proteins that switch states, respond to signals, and even compute, using light and the cell cycle.

Scientists reprogrammed two widely used “chemically induced proximity” systems in a recent chemical science paper. CIP systems are very simple: when a small molecule is added, two engineered protein ...

Researchers capture first-of-its-kind video of dynein–Lis1 protein interaction, supporting future drug development for neurological disorders. Our cells rely on microscopic highways and specialized ...

Large protein machines in the body carry out many of the cell's most essential tasks, from energy production to the ...

A peer-reviewed study published in Cell in March 2026 introduces “optovolution,” an in vivo directed-evolution system that uses light to breed proteins capable of switching between active and inactive ...
