A protein called STING, previously shown to control a pathway contributing to antiviral signaling, also plays an crucial role in resolving cellular stress and cell survival, according to a up-to-date paper published in Molecular cell. “It was very surprising to find that, in addition to its well-known role in preventing inflammation, STING also has a […]
A team led by Professor Seo Dae-ha from the Department of Physics and Chemistry at DGIST (President Lee Kun-woo) has developed a modern real-time microscopy technology and successfully observed the behavior of “motor proteins” that may be the key to unraveling an capable strategy for transporting material through cells. The research team used a nanoparticle […]
Combining an overall robust lifestyle with food that is both delicious and appetizing can sometimes be a bit of a stretch, as there is an unfortunate consensus that eating robust means sacrificing taste and variety of options. But in reality, many nutritious food options are now modeled after our classic favorite dishes. One of these […]
