New model for antibacterial mechanism

Biologists have discovered an aberrant protein that’s deadly to bacteria. This erroneously built protein mimics the action of aminoglycosides, a class of antibiotics. The newly discovered protein could serve as a model to help scientists unravel detail…

A new mutation behind synucleinopathies

Scientists have carried out an extensive study of a newly discovered mutation that can uncover new insights into the molecular basis of pathology formation in a family of disorders that includes Lewy body dementia and Parkinson’s disease.
