Vimentin is a type III intermediate filament (IF) protein normally expressed in cells that develop into connective tissue, ...

Thermo-sensitive genic male sterility 5 (tms5) is a widely used thermo-sensitive genic male sterile (TGMS) line for two-line ...

The multitude of experiments “is definitely convincing to me that this single amino acid mutation is definitely changing the cell function,” says Marchetto. “I think it is an interesting hypothesis to ...

When NASA launched a spacecraft to an asteroid, scientists patiently waited for their chance to look at bits of the space ...

However, with so many amino acids in a protein, there are an astronomical number of ways mutations can combine.

Neurogeneticists  have discovered a novel genetic mutation and associated buildup of toxic proteins in the brain — a type of buildup distinct from amyloid or tau, proteins that have long been the ...

Synonymous mutations have long been ignored in cancer studies since they don’t affect the amino acid sequences of proteins. But research increasingly reveals that they can have disease-driving effects ...

During translation, the sequence of codons is read in order from the nucleotide sequence to synthesize a chain of amino acids and form a protein. Frameshift mutations arise when the normal ...

New research has found that changes to the intermediate filament (IF) protein, vimentin, were found to promote tumor growth.

Following this is the protein coding gene sequence, which in AIP is approximately 1000 bases long, coding for a 330 amino acid long peptide. When a mutation occurs the sequence of the bases changes ...

Vimentin is a type III intermediate filament (IF) protein normally expressed in cells that develop into connective tissue, blood vessels, and ...

Amino acids that are the same as those of the reference ... terminator and inhibit reverse transcription. NRTI-resistance mutations & their mechanism of drug resistance M184V/I is the most ...
