One Protein to Rule Them All
Shelby Bradford, PhD | Feb 28, 2024 | 10+ min read
p53 is possibly the most important protein for maintaining cellular function. Losing it is synonymous with cancer.

Courtesy of Adrian Arakaki THERE'S GOLD IN THEM THERE COMPLEXES: Digging up protein-protein interactions with MULTIPROSPECTOR. Using a computer instead of a pipette, Jeffrey Skolnick contemplates the subtle forces that bring proteins together. His first computational forays helped decipher the quaternary structure of proteins--the interactions between subunits in molecules such as tropomyosin. Now Skolnick, executive director of the Buffalo Center of Excellence in Bioinformatics, Buffalo
Probing Protein Interactions

The challenge of proteomics is personified in the Greek god, Proteus. The keeper of all knowledge, past, present and future, Proteus would not give up any information easily; even while held down, he would struggle and assume different forms before giving anything up. Remarkably, proteomics, and proteins for that matter, were not named after Proteus, but the imagery could not be more fitting. It's still anyone's guess what the final gene count will be in the human genome, let alone the total nu
Protein Purification II: Affinity Tags
Aileen Constans | Feb 17, 2002 | 9 min read
Scientists working with recombinant proteins expressed in Escherichia coli probably use at least one liquid chromatography technique to purify their protein of interest. But liquid chromatography frequently requires a considerable amount of optimization, and usually involves several different chromatographic steps to rid the sample of contaminants.1 The ideal solution would be to create a resin that is completely specific to the target protein, enabling one-step purification.

A technique that reversibly bundles tagged cargo into artificial membraneless compartments gives scientists the ability to switch cell processes on and off.
The mitochondria inside of a neuron are shown in red. The neuron’s protrusions called dendritic spines are shown in cyan.
How Mitochondria Stay Still in Neurons
