Protein activity is strictly regulated. Incorrect or poor protein regulation can lead to uncontrolled growth and thus cancer or chronic inflammation. Members of the Institute of Veterinary Biochemistry and Molecular Biology from the University of Zurich have identified enzymes that can regulate the activity of medically important proteins. Their discovery enables these proteins to be manipulated very selectively, opening up new treatment methods for inflammations and cancer. For a healthy...

The activity of any living cell, and by extension life itself, depends on protein synthesis and the transcription of DNA. If proteins are the machinery of cellular function, then DNA are the machine assembly lines – responsible for accurately and efficiently ‘transcribing’ protein messengers, structures and enzymes. DNA transcription begins in the nucleus of a cell when an enzyme called RNA polymerase binds to the DNA strand. Sequences within the DNA direct the polymerase to...
