In a new Nature Communications study, scientists have developed a novel method for artificial cells to interact with their external environment without the need for complex modification processes.

Proteins control most of the body's functions, and their malfunction can have severe consequences, such as neurodegenerative diseases or cancer. Therefore, cells have mechanisms in place to control ...

Protein translocation across cellular membranes is fundamental to both prokaryotic and eukaryotic life, directing nascent polypeptides into organelles, the periplasmic space or the extracellular ...

The BioPORTER ® protein delivery reagent from AMSBIO has been proven to efficiently transport functionally active proteins directly into living cells, eliminating the traditional DNA transfection, ...

Bacteria that live peacefully in the human gut can aim molecular syringes at intestinal cells and fire proteins directly into ...

Transcription and translation are processes a cell uses to make all proteins the body needs to function from information stored in the sequence of bases in DNA. The four bases (C, A, T/U, and G in the ...
