Canadian immunologists have identified a mechanism that promotes the activation of T cell receptors by altering how one of its components interacts with the cell membrane.
Scientists have deciphered a key strategy of cancer cells that allows them to outfox the immune system and enhance the odds of their survival by employing a deadly "two-faced protein" that is reminiscent of a two-faced figure ...
Kidney organoids provide a promising platform in vitro to model the mechanisms of kidney disease, however, they are limited by an existing lack of knowledge of their inherent functional protein expression. In a new report ...
A research team of 37 scientists, led by the Technical University of Munich, has developed a method to interrogate drug-induced post-translational modifications (PTMs) in a time and dose-dependent way.
For the first time in the world: a team of researchers from Tel Aviv University and the Israel Institute for Biological Research have developed an mRNA-based vaccine that is 100% effective against a type of bacteria that ...
