The soluble precursors of elastin protein and elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) are polymers that typically undergo liquid‒liquid phase separation to form coacervates. In addition to their fundamental ...

Protein-polymer conjugation represents a versatile strategy to improve the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles of biologically active proteins. By covalently linking synthetic or genetically ...

To ensure that protein production in our cells runs smoothly, the protein complex NAC slows down the rate of protein synthesis right at the start. An international research team with significant ...

The formation of aggregates due to protein misfolding and resulting protein instability is associated with several diseases. Previous studies have shown the potential of sulfobetaine polymer, a ...

Proteins are vital biomolecules responsible for performing various functions in the human body and are thus regarded as the workhorses of a cell. The primary structure of a protein is composed of ...

Protein stabilization is key to tackling protein aggregation, which is involved in neurodegenerative diseases. Rajan et al. explore molecular mechanisms by which zwitterionic polymers stabilize ...
