The review introduces the molecular subtypes of breast cancer and outlines how altered amino acid metabolism supports tumor ...

Reducing our intake of a single amino acid called methionine, which we get from the food we eat, could help protect against ...

Why ‘life is handed’ – why the chiral amino acids that make up proteins and the chiral sugars in nucleic acids are present only in one of the two possible enantiomeric forms – is one of the most ...

Amino acid supplements have soared in popularity in recent years. Social-media influencers peddle them with promises that they’ll build muscle, enhance athletic performance, promote weight loss, boost ...

We engineered l/d-Cu/Z@MH, a multimodal therapeutic nanoplatform functionalized with hyaluronic acid (HA) and chiral amino acids, to enhance tumor-targeting specificity and cellular internalization.

“We are analyzing OSIRIS-REx samples for the chirality (handedness) of individual amino acids, and in the future, samples from Mars will also be tested in laboratories for evidence of life including ...

In this episode of Tiny Show and Tell Us, we cover why your body feels so ‘off’ at high altitudes and how we’ve evolved not to detect low oxygen levels but high amounts of carbon dioxide. Then we ...

The researchers found that certain amino acids, like cysteine, would bind to borophene in distinct locations, depending on their chiral handedness. The researchers exposed the chiralized borophene ...

The researchers found that certain amino acids, like cysteine, would bind to borophene in distinct locations, depending on their chiral handedness.

The α-helix is defined by having 3.6 amino acids in each turn such that each amino acid residue wraps itself around 100°, and 13 atoms in each ring. Chiral molecules ...
