Scientists have identified a conserved aging-related protein, EPS8, that promotes toxic protein aggregation linked to neurodegenerative diseases.
Neurons have a "hibernation mode." Scientists discover how brain cells use RNA tentacles to lock their protein factories together to survive when energy is low.
Respiratory supercomplex formation relieves molecular strain of mitochondrial membranes and reshapes global protein motions, linking membrane reorganization to respiratory function.
