Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) are a group of inherited neurodegenerative diseases that damage the spine and the cerebellum that sits just above it. The neuronal degeneration causes ataxia, or ...
How do the key features of protein folding, elucidated from studies on native, isolated proteins, manifest in cotranslational folding on the ribosome? Using a well-characterized family of homologous α ...
Spectrin and ankyrin, two essential proteins, shape and fortify cell membranes. New findings on variations in spectrin's ability to bind to membranes have implications for new biomedical molecular ...
A network of proteins underlying the plasma membrane keeps epithelial cells in shape and maintains their orderly hexagonal packing in the mouse lens, according to new research. A network of proteins ...
A team of researchers has developed a new method to screen FDA-approved drugs to determine if they could be repurposed or improved to help patients with a rare, debilitating disease of the nervous ...
Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy (PPMD), a nonprofit organization leading the fight to end Duchenne muscular dystrophy (Duchenne) awarded University of Washington a $148,000 grant to continue the ...
This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract High densities of ion channels at axon initial segments (AISs) and nodes of Ranvier are required for initiation, propagation, and modulation ...
Neurons never sit still for long. Receptors move in and out of the cell surface. Signals surge, fade, then surge again. Beneath that activity, a fine lattice made of actin and spectrin quietly lines ...
