Protein problem: Researchers challenge fundamental assumption in evolutionary biochemistry
How did life originate? Ancient proteins may hold important clues. Every organism on Earth is made up of proteins. Although all organisms—even single-celled ones—have complex protein structures now, ...
Cells assemble protein networks through regions of protein recognition that are found in numerous proteins as conserved peptide motifs. This allows for the specific and efficient communication of ...
A study has found that an ancient protein motif that binds to nucleic acids is functionally "ambidextrous." This means that the motif can interact with both natural and mirror-image nucleic acids, an ...
