Scientists in Michigan are reporting the development of a powerful new probe for identifying proteins affected by a key chemical process important in ageing and disease. The probe works like a GPS or navigation system for finding these proteins in cells. It could lead to new insights into disease processes and identify new targets for disease treatments, the researchers say. Their study is scheduled for the 10 September issue of ACS Chemical Biology, a monthly journal...
