A new brain mapping study reveals smokers could be predisposed to their addiction due to the molecular make up of their brains.
Researchers have developed a new algorithm that integrates Alzheimer's indicators from MRI measurements to predict patients with the neurodegenerative disease.
Researchers reveal gender specific differences between male and female dementia patients.
Researchers discover how unmutated versions of PINK1 and PARKIN collaborate to rid cells of damaged mitochondria.
Important clues about the causes of MS could be found in gray matter, a new study suggests.
Researchers developed nanomachines which recreate principal activities of proteins. They present the first versatile and modular example of a fully artificial protein-mimetic model system.
Researchers identified 21 proteins that specifically bind to a protein called ataxin-1. Twelve of these proteins enhance the misfolding of ataxin-1 and thus promote the formation of harmful protein aggregate structures, whereas nine of them prevent the misfolding.
Just like people, some proteins have characteristic ways of “walking,” which (also like human gaits) are not so easy to...
Structural biologists at the Keck School of Medicine of USC are the first to measure the energy difference between protein...
Max Planck researchers discovered that large, less hydrophobic proteins with a significant increase of disorder in their structures were more...
