Heat Shock Proteins May Shed New Light on a Variety of Debilitating Diseases
Jan. 28, 2013 UCLA researchers, in a finding that runs counter to conventional wisdom, have discovered for the first time that a gene thought to express a protein in all cells that come under stress is instead expressed only in specific cell types
Enzyme helps cancer cells avoid genetic instability
Jan. 21, 2013 Cancer cells are resourceful survivors with plenty of tricks for staying alive. Researchers have uncovered one of these stratagems, showing how cells lacking the tumor suppressor BRCA1 can resume one form of DNA repair, sparing themselves from stagnation or death.
Protein folding via charge zippers
Jan. 18, 2013 Membrane proteins are the “molecular machines” in biological cell envelopes. They control diverse processes, such as the transport of molecules across the lipid membrane, signal transduction, and photosynthesis.

Brain scan can sort dementia by type
26 December 2012 Last updated at 20:45 ET Scientists say they have found a way to distinguish between different types of dementia without the need for invasive tests, like a lumbar puncture.
New technique catalogs lymphoma-linked genetic variations
Dec. 26, 2012 As anyone familiar with the X-Men knows, mutants can be either very good or very bad — or somewhere in between. The same appears true within cancer cells, which may harbor hundreds of mutations that set them apart from other cells in the body; the scientific challenge has been to figure out which mutations are culprits and which are innocent bystanders.
