A protein once thought to simply help cancer cells avoid death turns out to do much more. MCL1 actively drives cancer ...

Every cell depends on proteins to function and stay healthy. These proteins are made inside the cell from amino acids, but ...

A new study reveals how a single cancer protein may simultaneously drive tumor survival and metabolic control, uncovering a ...

Interrupting one function of a protein that plays a key role in cell signaling could enable the development of new cancer treatments, according to a study led by Dr. Martin Taylor at the Warren Alpert ...

Researchers have shown that the protein MCL1 not only inhibits programmed cell death, but also plays a central role in tumor ...

The researchers have succeeded in tracing two classic hallmarks of cancer – the evasion of apoptosis (a form of programmed cell death) and the dysregulation of energy metabolism – back to a common ...

Groundbreaking studies in mice have sparked a frenzy among longevity enthusiasts—but human trials are still in their infancy. Rapamycin (red) inhibits a protein complex called mTORC1 (mammalian target ...
