The functioning of neurons, cells that transmit information in the nervous system, heavily relies on the production of ...

Pichia pastoris has emerged as a leading eukaryotic host for recombinant protein production, owing to its ability to perform complex post-translational modifications and grow to high cell densities ...

Did you know that protein is related to cancer? Many of us know that protein aids in muscle growth, but fewer of us know that overproduction of protein by our bodies’ cells can enable cancerous growth ...

Researchers at VIB and KU Leuven have identified a molecular process that allows motor neurons to maintain protein production ...

Proteins are among the most important molecular building blocks of life. They are chains of amino acids assembled in our cells by ribosomes, the molecular "protein factories" of our bodies. The ...

Proteins are among the most important molecular building blocks of life. They themselves are built from amino acids linked together based on the information in our genetic material. In this process, ...

Every cell depends on proteins to function and stay healthy. These proteins are made inside the cell from amino acids but cannot simply accumulate inside the cell forever. Once they have done their ...

The host cell system is a critical determinant of recombinant protein quality and yield, with direct influence on protein folding and post-translational modification factors that shape the ...

Pichia pastoris has emerged as a central microbial host for recombinant protein production, offering a unique balance of rapid growth, capacity for post‐translational modifications, and ease of ...
