   Folding Matters: Unraveling the Impact of Protein Folding on Biological ProcessesFolding Matters: Unraveling the Impact of Protein Folding on Biological Processes
 
Protein folding is integral for normal physiology, such as development and aging, which can be compromised with dysfunctional protein folding that can result in disease pathologies such as neurodegeneration and cancer.
 
   The Role of Mass Spectrometry in GlycobiologyThe Role of Mass Spectrometry in Glycobiology
 
To understand the role of glycans in the body, mass spectrometry has emerged as the primary tool for documenting these biological structures. Here, we discuss why investigating glycans is important and how mass spectrometry is used to do this.

Announcing a new article publication for Cardiovascular Innovations and Applications journal. Immune cells play important roles in mediating allograft rejection and tolerance after cardiac transplantation.
 
   How Epigenetic Landscape Impacts Pioneer Transcription Factor BindingHow Epigenetic Landscape Impacts Pioneer Transcription Factor Binding
 
St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital researchers are investigating how a type of transcription factor known as a pioneer transcription factor reaches DNA even when it is tightly wrapped.
 
   Computational Approach Could Uncover Transcriptional Regulatory Mechanisms and Causal Noncoding VariantsComputational Approach Could Uncover Transcriptional Regulatory Mechanisms and Causal Noncoding Variants
 
Less than two percent of the human genome codes for proteins, with the rest being noncoding and likely helping with gene regulation.
 
   The Role of Noncanonical Mechanism in the Evolution of miRNA BiogenesisThe Role of Noncanonical Mechanism in the Evolution of miRNA Biogenesis
 
The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) research group, guided by Prof. Tuan Anh Nguyen, Assistant Professor of the Division of Life Science, used several advanced methods, including miRNA sequencing, pri-miRNA structure analysis, and high-throughput pri-miRNA cleavage assays for approximately 260,000 pri-miRNA sequences, to locate and thoroughly illustrate the newly identified noncanonical cleavage mechanism.
