Lysosomes are the control centers for the metabolism of cells and tissues, including the brain. They break down defective proteins and other macromolecules into their basic building blocks.

Researchers identified TBC1D9B as the off switch for ARL8B, a key regulator of lysosome positioning. This mechanism controls how cells adapt to nutrient stress and maintain metabolic balance.

Explore advances in protein imaging techniques and spatial proteomics. Learn how modern imaging tools reveal protein dynamics and organization in cells.

Proteins or RNA synthesized in one cellular compartment such as the cytoplasm or the nucleus are often transported across membranes to function in another compartment. Thus, the transport process is ...

Protein needs vary by goals, such as muscle gain or pregnancy. Getting the right amount of protein can help build muscle, support bone density, and meet pregnancy demands.

Proteins, one of the smallest building blocks of life on Earth, hold promise for answering some of biology's biggest ...

Crystal jellyfish have an eerie beauty: thanks to a natural protein, they emit a faint green glow. For decades, researchers have used that green fluorescent protein and similar molecules to light up ...

Misconceptions about protein are everywhere, from how much of it you need in a day to the best food sources available. If you’re really trying to maximize your intake of the macro, the latter is ...
