HHMI scientists and their colleagues discover a new mechanism of protein synthesis. Ribosomes are the cell’s molecular machines, responsible for translating genetic information in messenger RNA into ...

Since the MDC mechanism requires monomeric soluble peptide as the accelerant ... analogous to solid phase chemical synthesis wherein the rate of the reaction depends on the agitation rate.

Peptides have gained significant attention in research due to their possible role in regulating various physiological ...

The researchers then carried out cell-free biosynthesis where they added all the cell components that are necessary for the ...

and this peptide is toxic to neurons and other cells in many different contexts, including expression in C. elegans (Link, 1995). Despite many years of study, the mechanism(s) and disease relevance of ...
