In a pair of cross-appeals from the International Trade Commission, the Federal Circuit affirmed the Commission’s ruling that one of CJ CheilJedang Corp.’s engineered bacterial strains infringed ...
From the spice rack to the lab bench, emerging proteomic insights reveal how hidden peptide fragments in everyday spices may ...
Scientists have developed a way of finding optimal peptide sequences: using a machine-learning algorithm as a collaborator. The algorithm analyzes experimental data and offers suggestions on the next ...
The World Health Organization estimates that antibiotic resistant infections kill more than a million people worldwide every year, so many researchers are actively looking for new ways to combat it.
A significant portion of modern endocrine research involves Growth Hormone Secretagogues (GHS). These peptides are designed to interact with the ghrelin receptor or the growth hormone-releasing ...
Protein production (translation) is a complex process involving machinery called ribosomes. How do cells counter ribosomal destabilization leading to premature termination of translation? Scientists ...
Scientists and engineers have long been interested in synthesizing peptides — chains of amino acids responsible for conducting many functions within cells — to both mimic nature and to perform new ...
