Nanopores are tiny, nanometer-scale apertures that are synthetically produced in manufactured materials as well as biological membranes. They allow ions or molecules to pass through and have been ...
Your next favorite true crime podcast might have some new forensics jargon to make sense of. Researchers in Australia have developed a new way to identify humans – similar to how we do with DNA and ...
Western blotting remains a cornerstone method for the detection and quantification of proteins from complex biological samples. This technique has evolved from its early qualitative roots to a more ...
Proteins interact with one another but also with other molecules, such as DNA and RNA. The complex interplay between and across proteins creates convoluted networks of protein interaction. Situated in ...
Proteins are workhorses that carry out most of the biological functions in our cells. While the genes we inherit from our parents, our so-called genome, are fixed and usually remain unchanged ...
New research from scientists at the University of Birmingham and other institutions describes a method of counting labeled proteins in living cells dubbed Protein-tag Degree of Labeling (PRoDOL) that ...
Avoid common mistakes in multiplexing protein secretion assays. Discover best practices to ensure accurate results.
The proteome is an incredibly rich and dynamic source of biological information, key to understanding how cells function in sickness and health. Genes and genomes give hints as to what might happen in ...
Calling green fluorescent protein a model protein would also improve how biology is taught. Like classic model organisms, green fluorescent protein is safe and visual. It is also forgiving, producing ...
