Scientists develop new color-coded test for protein folding

Every protein--from albumin to testosterone --is folded into a unique, three-dimensional shape that allows it to function properly. Now Stanford University scientists have developed a simple test that instantly changes color when a protein molecule attached to a gold nanoparticle folds or unfolds. The new technique, which works on the sa...

Tiny scaffolding allows stem cells to become working fat cells

Researchers here have used a new microscopic, three-dimensional scaffolding to coax mouse stem cells to transform themselves into fat cells, and then to function identical to how fat cells naturally do in the body. While other studies have previously grown fat cells, or adipocytes, in the laboratory, those cells never completely functioned in the same way they do in normal tissue. They fai...

Beyond genes: Lipid helps cell wall protein fold into proper shape

A protein that provides a vital passage through a bacterium's outer cell wall will misfold and malfunction if that wall is built of the 'wrong' material, scientists at The University of Texas Medical School at Houston report in a finding that has long-term implications for understanding diseases caused by misfolded proteins such as cystic fibrosis, Alzheimer's disease, and mad cow disease. <p...

Free-energy theory borne out in large-scale protein folding

In unprecedented new research, scientists at Rice University have combined theory and experiment for the first time to both predict theoretically and verify experimentally the protein-folding dynamics of a large, complex protein. "Researchers have succ...

Bioactive cement scaffold may improve bone grafts

A new technology for implants that may improve construction or repair of bones in the face, skull and jaw, has been developed by researchers from the American Dental Association Foundation (ADAF) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Described in recent and upcoming journal articles,* the new technology provides a method for making scaffolds for bone tissue. The s...

140-Fold Increase of Protein Achieved in Pichia Fermentation

NBS microbiologists recently assisted researchers at the University of California in achieving a140-fold increase in protein production from a recombinant strain of Pichia pastoris yeast. Topyields by the researchers thus far had been 1.4 mg/L of a throm-bomodulin fragment whenculturing Pichia in shake flasks. By switching to a BioFlo 3000 </...

Researchers discover mechanism behind protein folding

Professor Ted Laurence, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory are studying the biopolymer structural dynamics of proteins to understand the mechanism of protein folding. The new theory on protein folding unfolds the mystery of // how a protein is incorrectly folded which leads to diseases and the study is to be published in the Journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences....

Paid-For Sex Rates In Britain Has Increased Two Fold Over The Past 10 Years

A recent survey done to evaluate the prevalence of paid-sex in Britain projects alarming results showing the rates have indeed doubled over the past decade. The survey was conducted amongst 11,000 British adults // between 1990 and 2000. The study participants were required to provide details regarding their sexual lifestyle and attitude towards sex in general. Additionally, the men we...

TI Cycles Introduces Foldman

A folding bike has been introduced by TI Cycles India to make cycling more popular and encourage it as a healthy exercise.

Two BSA models of the folding cycle have been introduced by the Chennai based organization. Claimed to be the firs...

Novel Technique Can Enhance Stem Cell Multiplication By 30 Fold

A novel method which can aid in the multiplication of adult stem cells, yielding a 30 fold enhanced harvest has been discovered.// This finding could eventually pave way for the development of refinement in bone transplantation and gene therapy techniques. The use of adult stem cells is encouraged to a great extent as it is associated with less ethical concerns and surpasses the utili...

Mystery unfolds about the Ginkgo biloba extract!
