New protein manufacturing process unveiled

Thursday, September 10, 2015 - 13:30 in Biology & Nature

A user-friendly technology has been developed to help scientists understand how proteins work and fix them when they are broken. Such knowledge could pave the way for new drugs for a myriad of diseases, including cancer. The researchers' cell-free protein synthesis platform technology can manufacture large quantities of phosphorylated human proteins for scientific study. This will enable scientists to learn more about their function, structure and role in disease.
