The human body and its organs are composed of a wide variety of cell types. Although all cells contain the same genes, they function very differently—partly because protein interactions differ between ...

Multicellular organisms, like animals and plants, have complex cells with diverse functions. This complexity arises from the need for cells to produce distinct proteins that interact with each other.

Paired Box 3 (PAX3) is a protein that plays a critical role in the formation of tissues and organs during embryonic ...

Livestock breeders could soon have more tools to improve the health and quality of their animals, thanks to a recent study ...

Profiling the proteins that cells are making is a staple of studies in biology, neuroscience and related fields because the proteins a cell is expressing at a given moment can reflect the functions ...

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are tiny biological bubbles that carry nucleic acids and proteins between cells, playing an ...

Aging is a major risk factor for chronic diseases, and calorie restriction (CR) is a robust non-pharmacological intervention that can extend health span in multiple species. Alternative splicing (AS) ...

Cells in humans and all vertebrates are tightly packed together to form organs and glands — tissues essential for living, breathing and moving. “In humans, three families of membrane proteins in ...
