Antibodies are the immune system's precision tools for recognizing and neutralizing viruses, bacteria and other foreign ...

While DNA sequencing is a useful tool for determining what's going on in a cell or a person's body, it only tells part of the story. Protein sequencing could soon give researchers a wider window into ...

Primary Structure: 100% amino acid sequence identity confirmed between ABP-450 and BOTOX®, based on sequence coverage of 93% - 99% for the five proteins that comprise the 900kD botulinum toxin type A ...

While researchers have already succeeded in obtaining sequence information from single DNA strands, a further major challenge in bioanalytics is the direct determination of the amino acid sequence ...

Structural disorder is vital for proteins' function in diverse biological processes. It is therefore highly desirable to be able to predict the degree of order and disorder from amino acid sequence.

Proteins are the workhorses of cells and provide vital insights to cell health and disease function. Immunoassays and mass spectrometry are well established methods for studying proteins and have led ...

Amino acid sequencing has become a highly automated and efficient process. It plays an invaluable role in protein biochemistry, and is making an increasing contribution to modern molecular biology and ...

Life runs on instructions you never see. Every cell reads DNA, turns that message into RNA, and then builds proteins that ...

Whether you’re interested in why a living system works as it does or the reasons it goes awry, proteins are a critical part of the molecular picture. The proteins circulating in a person’s plasma can ...

Students will compare the sequence of amino acids in a gene shared between humans and six other organisms and infer evolutionary relationships among the species. In the NOVA scienceNOW segment Bird ...
