Asthma may not be driven by the molecules scientists have blamed for decades. Researchers have identified “pseudo leukotrienes,” inflammation-triggering compounds formed by uncontrolled free-radical ...

Researchers from the University of Seville have participated in research to identify the molecular details of the regulation ...

Ubiquitination is a crucial post-translational modification process where the small protein ubiquitin is attached to target proteins, marking them for degradation or altering their function. This ...

Macrolides are an important class of antibiotics that includes drugs such as azithromycin and erythromycin, which are widely used to treat a range of infections, including pneumonia and skin ...

Macrolide antibiotics like azithromycin rely on a complex ring structure that’s powerful but notoriously hard to control.  Researchers have uncovered how bacterial enzymes shape this ring during the ...
